Anyone wondering why they are so needlessly cruel - that’s the point. It’s a demonstration of malign power for both the oppressed and the oppressors so that each knows their place.
Same reason as the Nazi regime and the Jews. They need somebody to hate and destroy because of their fragile ego. It is easier to believe in something than it is to question something.
One of my friends was complaining that Biden’s border policy is a disaster and I told her that it’s actually very easy to “fix” the border, it’s just incompatible with stated US values:
Ritual torture.
Now they have to expand the target population because Biden’s deportation numbers were better.
