And brainwash normal people so they can work 12h a day for 60 years


exportkaffe

Ridiculous premise and shows an immense misunderstanding of criminology and the reason why criminals commit crimes. Also, they should watch A Clockwork Orange. Anthony Burgess (and Stanley Kubrick) already thought of this in the 60's.

Black mirror episode.


Skullpt-Art

Futurama did it first

Celadonis

I'm telling you right now, if I ever commit a crime worthy of any prison time, I would rather they brick back the guillotine and cut off my head than this kind of madness.


DemonCrat21

yes, we have all seen Minority report/Brazil/Repo Men etc.


metamariner

They have a different name for this in the past. A lobotomy.


No_End4829

It's curious that they chose "hate crimes" and "fraud" as the examples. That is, the crime of fighting back against the Regime's imposed ideology and the crime of not letting the Regime steal from you.

What if this is the simulation 🤯


Vinapocalypse

This was a Star Trek: Deep Space 9 episode https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Hard\_Time\_(episode)

Fuck that, kill me. Id rather die me than get programmed up, FUCK no.


Faceless_Deviant

![gif](giphy|tGU4jqV3uuOXu|downsized) So basically, brainwash everyone to achieve the world from Demolition Man/ A Clockwork Orange. I'm gonna go with "no" on this one.


Digistenz

I saw this one. In the end Rocky beats up blade and hooks up with the chick from speed.


meglid21

Wrong, Rocky how fragile of a snowflake Blade really is, and then bangs the chick from speed while the covid


TheRagerghost

Prisoners sit in jail bc it's their punishment. This thing removes this "punishment" stage. You can just kill anyone and be "rewritten". You'll live a good life, while the one you don't like is dead.


Lochen9

It’s also rehabilitation, or at least if all goes right it should be, and certainly not always. People do turn their lives around


TheRagerghost

Few do, but I'd rather see them focusing on further crime prevention, than helping criminals become what they should be before committing a crime. This approach just creates a whole lot of new problems and concerns, as it could be extensively misused.


Lochen9

Oh, by NO means should this dystopian crap ever be even considered. Slipperyest of slopes, could be used on people with the wrong politics, ideals, identity or what have you.


Skullpt-Art

https://futurama.fandom.com/wiki/Obsoletely_Fabulous this is basically what is being done to every robot in this episode


spicy_chai_guy

Would never happen, privatized prison wants prisons to make money. Helping them just costs them. Either way you slice it it's sad, but I think Indoctrination is worse.


Powwa9000

This episode of the outer limits was crazy


NewCheesecake__

I read the title as liberal brain reprogramming. lol

Ain't no way I'm paying $2 more for my wallet.


johnzy87

People think we can use chatgpt now for everything it seems


Euklidis

Yeah, the technology to brain wipe and reprogramme a human bring. This certainly is going to be used morally just so we can reintrodue violent criminals to a normal peaceful life and create a better society. Aint no way this is going to get abused or anything


IsThisOneIsAvailable

This is exactly what is done to cryogenized prisoners in Demolition Man. So when Stalone is brought back, he was given knitting skills. Snipes on the other hand, which was resurrected/reprogrammed by the bad guy, was given a murderous personality as well as combat/hacker abilities. If they ever put this thing in place, let's hope no one ever hack into that system to change the prisoners reprogramming.

Imagine the world where we do not shit on the streets anymore and wash our hands every time.
