Had you heard of Maoist Struggle Sessions? Those are scary shit.
My former company hosted struggle sessions during the summer of floyd. It was over zoom, so no physical beatings. Just emotional and mental.

For information on struggle sessions see Robert Liftons "thought reform and the psychology of totalism"
