Who would you transform into a model socialist citizen?

    Probably Schwarzenegger. I enjoy his movies, and his advocacy for the Special Olympics and solar energy makes me believe he's not a completely unhinged psychopath. Also, this moment (CW: ableism) holds a special place in my heart.

    However many could possibly be reformed without jeopardizing the project, because that's the best possible outcome.

      Folks, I was concerned at first walking into that camp, but my good friend Kim Jong-Un told me, he said I could be a good comrade, and I've always been great at what I've done, and this was the same. I worked hard at that camp, hard work like they used to do in America. We broke rocks. Big rocks, huge rocks, you wouldn't believe the size of these rocks. Do you think Joe Biden could break a rock like that? And I learned that the rocks were going to be used for building trains. Beautiful trains- Toot Toot! -for a socialist country. America will forever be a socialist country, we will make America great, it's true. We crushed Meatball Ron under a rock, but did anyone care about that guy anyway? What a loser!

      I think he could actually win but they might murder him if he was a leftist

        They'd have to. It's obvious by now that the legal system can't touch him.

      His primary politics seem to be influenced by whoever talks to him last and as long as you don't tell him what to do, you are cool with him. I could see him being reformed.

    Nothing will demonstrate the power of communism more than turning someone as annoying as him into a useful citizen.

    Trump would be good as well but he's too old.

      I always imagined him and his fellow billionaires being forced to mine rare earth minerals with their bare hands (and this entire ordeal being turned into a reality TV series for the delectation of the world’s workers) but I feel like people would actually pity them pretty quickly so yeah, re-education and then a normal proletarian life is probably best.

        Turning them in to committed and content socialists would be so much more cruel and absolute a punishment than any physical torment. You wouldn't just be hurting their body and traumatizing them, that's easy. You'd have to utterly destroy the monster that exists, and re-build them in to a complete, total refutation of all of their beliefs, all of their convictions, and all of the life's work.

          Puyi basically spent the rest of his life, while more alive than he was, basically spent the last years of his life apologizing for his actions to random people because of his guilt. While was free for the last years of his life, he knew he was a monster for basically his entire life. That seems like a good punishment. Teach them to be good people, but leave them with the guilt for the remainder of their lives.

    He was just a kid so not technically a reactionary but Tsarevich Alexei. "NKVD Officer Romanov" has a nice ring to it.

    You didn't specify that they had to be alive.

    None of them. I'm not going to waste resources and personnel when they could just be thrown into the pit.

    It would have to be an oligarch, not a committed reactionary (those get the wall).

    So, Wyatt Koch.
