Goon is an extremely cheap type of wine sold in cardboard boxes. It's core audience are alcoholic working poor in Australia. It's an industry that preys on disenfranchised proles (and sometimes broke uni students) and their alcohol addictions.

As such, many in polite society dislike goon due to its association with the Poor's and the working class.

Others despise goon as it perpetuates a cycle of alcoholism.

As an alcoholic who used to drink two or three boxes of goon a week... Yeah, but it did also mean my alcoholism didn't break the bank. Not that that's a "good" reason for such easily available alcohol. That said, it's actually a surprisingly good money <-> calories ratio and helps you forget a mountain of debt sitting around that $45 wouldn't put a dent in.

Advising you don't do this.

Yeah honestly, goon and orange juice was a staple of uni parties in the early 2010's, until they invented Little Fat Lamb. Had friends that subsisted off of goon and mi goreng noodles for basically 4 years.

not sure if you are sincerely asking but I'm gonna answer your question sincerely anyway

CW porn, kinkgooning is fetishising one's own addiction to porn. masturbating for hours on end to achieve a hypnotic state of mind-numbing horniness. so basically edging but often with an added humiliation kink - it's become a common theme in femdom clips and hypno porn

why is it bad: addiction to porn and masturbation can get in the way of achieving one's goals or having meaningful relationships with people in the real world. also there is a lot of overlap with other problematic porn genres such as fetishization of trans women and racial fetishization etc.
