Unzipped: Korn & Seggs

Gen Z code for flickering flesh and relentless indulgence

Feb 05, 2025

Transcript

I’m going to be speaking in elegant code so that this topic can be fully discussed without bots and algorithms clobbering the podcast version. It may as well be the 1950s with secret handshakes or specially shaped foulards or pocket squares. The more advanced the technology becomes, the more retrogressive become language and intellectual freedom. So, let’s take a long, unflinching stare at the grand carnival of human folly and venture into a realm both omnipresent and yet curiously unspoken, a domain of furtive clicks and guilty glances—a multi-billion-dollar empire of flickering flesh and relentless indulgence. Yes, we are talking about *ornography or “kornography,” and se*, or “seggs”. These words now clear the automated gatekeepers of AI and algorithms.

A modern Mount Olympus of vice and vigor, the top four temples of digital lechery boast a staggering 2.3 billion visits a month in this land of musky mayhem. According to a recent article in VICE, the arithmetic of lust is equally stupefying: in ten minutes, a man may browse nine Web pages, partake in untold sinful reveries, and contribute his humble tribute—if the statistics hold - enough of “it” across the nation to fill an Olympic pool every three days. A symphony of pleasure, or a dirge of cultural decline?

Here, then, is our question: What does it mean to be living in the Golden Age of Smut? What does it portend for civilization, for relationships, for the very architecture of the human mind? Our species, once beholden to coy pin-ups and rumpled magazines beneath mattresses, now carries within its pocket a harem unbounded, available at a moment’s notice, all in dazzling high-definition. Is this progress, or is it peril?

We are not here for moral scolding, nor for libertine cheerleading. We are here to interrogate, to prod, to plunge our hands deep into the folds of this ever-expanding colossus and see what truths might be found within. So, consider with us many of these pressing inquiries as I bring out my vibrant cohost, the goddess Renee.

CLIPS:

Some eye-popping research facts:

Massive Consumption of Kornography
