  Banning porn isn’t just about porn

  And the shared imaginary of literature does help people develope and elaborate on identities, including sexual identities. So even if it was just about porn, it would still be dystopian, even if it doesnt have quite the urgency or visceral edge of the dystopian shit most of us are used to pointing out these days.

  You’re describing having to use your imagination while wanking as dystopian.

  How am I doing that? Using imagination while wanking is perfectly fine. Arresting people for using their imagination is dystopian.
