I get the impression that we've found earth's insane asylum.

No, not an asylum...

..."He is describing prison sexuality."

I think that nails it. The whole society behaves like they are incarcerated in a prison institution. The strong live to subdue, humiliate and intimidate the weak. The weak submit and only hope something worse doesn't happen.

Really, really depressing.

I thought of prison before settling on insane asylum. It's a close choice, but I picked insane and here's why. If they were lucid, more of them would leave and escape. Too many of them stay, so they have to be nuts. Even if you don't know what is going on outside the torture chamber, you still want to escape.
