On the electrified floor thing: We can all relate to the general feeling of vulnerability from being barefoot. It means being exposed, being susceptible to little pains and injuries. Seeing the barefoot prisoners helps us relate, on some small level, to their experience. — PolitiTweet.org

Obviously, we have to start with Narkina 5. Unnecessarily aggressive guards, gratuitous insistence on compliance, forced labor, tasteless food, destruction of solidarity, and electrified floors. What an incredibly bold metaphor for the American prison system. — PolitiTweet.org

The guards' insistence that prisoners remain "on program" is basically their way of saying "we control you utterly." It evokes the common expression "get with the program" but in a more oppressive way. These guards are so confident — so fat and proud, as Cassian once said. — PolitiTweet.org
