That does sound more like it. My point was that this type of pseudo-“rehabilitation” can’t really be conflated with pseudo-“re-education.” No matter how abusive these rehabilitation centres are, they still have staff and facilities that the POW-camp-like environment of a re-education facility doesn’t (and probably cost a lot more to run.)

Similar to the difference between state prisons and state mental asylums in America in the 1960s.

Because people who can't conform are a lot less dangerous than people who won't.
