Kino Loy is a great example of how oppressive regimes turn victims against each other. Prison guards empower people like him so they'll keep other prisoners cowed and productive instead of riotous. History is rife with examples of this. Props to Gilroy for going there. — 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

The fact that we can’t tell what gizmos the prisoners are making adds to the dystopian nature of their work. The objects are just metaphors for forced labor and the prisoners' involuntary contribution to the Imperial war machine. — PolitiTweet.org
