Starvation has two objectives: to implement a variety of control mechanisms on the minds of prisoners, and to make the prisoners enmeshed and complicit in the system. The prisoner’s stomach leads him to know the system. And after reacting with resistance, and going through draining, drawn-out phases of action in solidarity with others . . . nothing. It leads nowhere / Nothing / No answers to his futile questions / Nowhere / Nowhere except the threshold of insanity.
