I'd feel badly for the guy, at least until I remember the condition he likely left his, er, "workers" before he was captured. Though I'm sure he wishes he'd been killed rather than what he went through.

That being said, I also kinda feel sorry for the CRC therapists having to deal with the psychological aftermath of the "education" and all that it entailed. Still, excellent story.

And, btw, don't let the haters get you down. It's likely they realize who you're basing the dereggers on, and are getting all butt-hurt over it. It's not your problem. It's theirs. Think of it as a deregger knomira throwing a fit and whining, and everyone just rolling their eyes at the person.
