    The re-education: “So yeah, it was actually bad of the theocracy to enslave you in literal chains, rape, torture and mutilate you for fun. The poverty you experienced was not a divine punishment for your sins in past lives like the monks told you, it was inflicted on you by a class-based system of exploitation. You have value in this life comrade, not just the next. Here are some shoes.”

    It was such a charming traditional culture where everything was just better! There was harmony when everyone knew their place, before big commie government came in with their woke shit about girls learning to read too. They were happier as slaves!
