Naturally they're hooked for life and will never leave or reproduce or bother anyone again. It'll be a full VR system that lets them live in 1952 where white men are in charge and the women are sex appeal.

It's much more humane than y'know fash-bash

I think before the capitalist system beats it out of them and corrupts them into sociopathic monsters, they do. There are likely exceptions and outliers like there is for any human trait, but for the most part, as a social species, individual members of it are born with an inherent empathy for others. The major question here is whether or not a grain of that empathy still exists or can be re-instilled in a person who has been so thoroughly corrupted by the pathology of being a top beneficiary in a capitalist, greed-is-virtue system. I'd like to think so. That's perhaps the main purpose of reeducation.
