well, technically. there’s an art exhibit that involves throwing objects at a woman, including batteries, broken cellphones and balloons filled with animal blood (fake). so yes a woman is brutalized for spectacle but it’s consensual?

There's one scene where Cash and Detroit are in bed together and he gets mad and starts yelling right in her ear. They get in an argument but it never escalates to physical violence.

there's a close-up shot of someone doing cocaine IMMEDIATELY after the scene where she gets naked and has people throw balloons full of blood at her. the shot is about from 1:05:10 - 1:05:40
there's another one when he walks into the CEO's office from 1:14:00 - 1:14:50 (they talk about cocaine a lot in the scene)

a man is sitting on the toilet while on the phone, pants down but you don’t see or hear anything.
later, a character is off-screen dunked in a poop tank and they show him covered in poop. it’s just unrealistic enough to be obvious but still gross

a lot of “fuck you” during the first strike scene and middle fingers; mild swearing overall; nudity and a sex at a party; the horse cocks; “have a cola and smile, bitch” is repeated a lot as well; some of detroit’s clothes are sexually themed (phallic shaped, for example)

not explicitly shown but alluded to.
someone alters a statue of steve lift riding a horse to show him crudely sodomizing the horse. he also refers to the horse people something to the extent of “beautiful, magnificent creatures” and he tells cash one of the perks to the transformation is getting horse genitalia, which could imply using it
