I guess it kind of depends what you mean.

If you mean there are likely a few people out there who think it's not as bad as everyone makes it out to be, yes, probably so. If you mean there are possibly a few people who are so out of touch with reality that they think all the laws, the societal disgust and abhorrence, and the evidence (of trauma in childhood abuse survivors) are all wrong, well, I guess that could be true, given that people like anti-vaxxers, flat-Earthers, and supremacists exist.

However, I think some people write it because they are working something out. And I think some people write it because it is taboo. I think that most people who write about gruesome murders or horrible torture or awful abuse, don't really want to have anything to do with any of them in real life, even if they write from the perspective of a character who enjoys them. Part of the reason people can read and write terrible things is because it is fictional.

Now, of course, there are people who have issues with the division of fiction and reality. And there are people out there who either sociopathic or sadistic or both. But determining that, judging a writer's motivation, just from a piece of fiction seems like something you could get really, really wrong. If they outright state something about it in their author's notes, then that seem fair to judge.
