This is literally the ending of 1984, where the main character is tortured until he confesses to the state and “becomes a good citizen”

That's a great comparison. I didn't think of that. It's uncanny how well Orwell described the methodology that would be used by communist regimes. 1984 was published the same year as the communist take over in China: 1949.

This hit too close to home for me, I almost cried. When I was in elementary school they practiced something similar. All that was needed to do was to radicalize kids that didn't have strong opinions yet, the kids handled the rest. I only barely endured for 2 reasons. I organically began using the socratic method and stopped being as outspoken about my beliefs. I began having passive suicidal ideation due to guilt spurred on by the accusations but luckily not guided by them, meaning their accusations made me feel like a bad person but I used different charges. It was terrible, but then I met God.

I wouldn't say this is necessarily spiritual exploitation, as they are just abusing the psychological underpinnings that constitute spiritual and religious practices, without the need of metaphysical thinking. To me, they are exploiting the basic need for community through isolation and the need to self preserve they exploiting the their need of Personal identity through a methodology that makes you an Outcast until you think of yourself as a burden upon society and that you are meaningless unless you become the herd itself having a non self identity but a group identity.

What I'm getting from your video is that totalitarianism, despite its drawbacks, is the modern day expression of the ancient philosophy of the stoic philosophers like Confucius. These philosophers said the human mind needed to be rigorously trained and disciplined in order to live a good life. Now isn't that exactly what totalitarianism is trying to do? And there is simply some collateral damage along the way. That's the message I am getting from your video. I don't really see that you are condemning totalitarianism. Talking about all the bad things about something does not mean you are actually condemning that thing - this is a fundamental mistake people make over and over again.

@ProtectTransKids. Karl Marx's mother and father both converted to Christianity. Marx never met his relatives who where practicing Jews and new very little about the Jewish religion. To a large degree Marx's ideas who a reaction against Christianity, which Marx was much more familiar with and therefore more critical of. (Karl Marx was the guy who said that religion is the opiate of the masses). Despite Marx's lack of knowledge and familiarity of Judaism, he largely blamed Jews for the evils of Capitalism in his essay on the Jewish Question.
