True, that. Not only is the sadism revolting, but the blind ignorance. Programs use techniques very closely related to those used in Maoist re-education camps. Break them down, get them to believe 1+1=3, and you've got a docile beast ready for the People's Party. When some poor sod left the re-education camp, he/she entered the world they were programmed to fit into. What happens to a kid who goes through the same process, then re-enters the Land of the Weird and the Home of the Depraved? With it's non-stop temptations and 24 hr. access to vice? You've got a very fucked-up kid.
