is infinite torture even theoretically possible though? I think about whenever I feel pain, it always hurts at first, but then I eventually get used to it as a "new normal".
It's one of the blessings/curses that make socialism hard, people automatically adjust to their new conditions as normal. Poor people adjust to their worse living circumstances, and rich people adjust to theirs, so that the respective suffering/joy they would feel is blunted after a while. This blunting of joy is basically the reason why the rich will always have infinite appetites for more stuff.
I also think there's a floor on how much suffering can be blunted, once poor people start experiencing death, rape, etc. I think the floor breaks. People in general also hate losing more than they love winning, the pain of losing $50 is greater than the joy of finding $50. So I think this blunting is much stronger for the wealthy's joy, than for the poor's suffering
so yea I personally don't think infinite torture is possible even theoretically without killing someone, although it would still be pretty damn bad
I guess you're not a christian? Something something it's the exquisite end of a life full of sins so not so bad all things considered, at least you get to hang out with the cool and hot guys
