Thanks to The Supreme Crow for the suggestion

By "get off" I assume you mean "enjoy".
I see what you're doing there; you're trying to associate enjoying something with feeling an illicit sexual thrill so that you can create an association in the minds of your readers between people you disapprove of and genuine perverts; if you like something that I don't like, you're a pervert. Whereas you'd never talk about people "getting off" on a nice pork pie.

Plus, when you live on the street and eat out of bins just to survive, dignity is (rightly) quite low on your list of priorities. If I offer a tramp a pound to eat some soil, then he's getting a pound out of it so everyone's a winner.

Not necessarily sexual
But a thrill, definitely.

So - why do you want to get people to humiliate themselves - particularly people who are down on their luck?

It does seem perverse to me, yes - and not in a good way.
