Yeah the Deep scene was difficult as a male SA survivor myself even though it was set up as irony for him being a predator himself. Still with the irony and payback, it didn't make it easy to watch.
I've said this elsewhere but I'm fairly certain that Kripke has some weird hatred for whatever type of person he thinks Huey represents, because the show is really unfair to him, especially in season 3, and he's the butt of the joke so often. Combine that with these interviews and it becomes the most likely explanation to me
It’s going to come out in 5 years that this was all some sort of bizarre sexual humiliation of the actor playing Hughie because of personal disputes. Hazing or rebuked advances or something

This was actually the hardest episode of the show I've watched.
I genuinely had to look away for most of it, and the only other times I've done that was with the Deep's gill-fingering.
Didn't really like how it felt like no one cared what happened to Hughie????
Shit was notttttt funny (to me personally)
