I dunno. This is basically solitary confinement. People generally don’t deal well with it.

Lmao, this is nothing like solitary. Solitary doesn’t have anything in the room and is literally designed to make you go insane. It’s a form of torture that can fuck you up for life to the point where it’s considered cruel and unusual punishment in some places.

In comparison, you could play basketball all day in here and literally have a vacation. Sounds like I’m nitpicking but I get a little miffed when people underplay how fucked up real solitary is.

Someone downthread explained that the idea is that the guy is going to take away one thing a day, so it’s basically a slow-onset solitary.

Also, supposedly you’re allowed to read books in solitary, but we all know how the prison plays fast and loose with those rules.

You misunderestimate just how many people out there absolutely have to blab to others all day. If they don’t have it, even for a little while, they feel dead inside. It’s a real need. Remember during lockdown how many of them were crying that because they couldn’t go in to the office they had been deprived of their human rights?
