prison guard here. it's because we put them through an actual regimen of care. not like pampering or some shit. you're still isolated from socity, and they generally treat each other like shit. but we don't treat them like shit. but for most guys it's a regimented day. > 3 meals balanced for basic nutrition > hour for exercise > daily showering > afternoon work shift making belts, woodworking, or metalwork ect. > hour off before lights out mind you, you have zero freedom or privacy beyond that, and if you're violent you go in the iso cell. but if you behave the system treats you like a human. if you want to see people mistreated look at an ice detention center.
