Quote[..] when writers are afraid to be perverts [..they indulge] only the safest and most unoffensive fetishes to render on the screen.

[..] when art displays the common fetishes of heterosexual matrimony, fast cars and big guns and big-but-not-gargantuan breasts [etc.] - these absolutely are fetishes.

every day you are smothered in the common perversions of so much of society [..]

I disagree with other parts of this manifesto, between these lines, where these common perversions (a term I love, by the way) are described as "endless" and "generic" in a way that I can only read as derogatory.
