renaturalization

The renaturalization program in Scattershot is a state-run system of psychological, physical, and spiritual coercion designed to enforce ideological conformity. While it primarily targets LGBTQ+ individuals, its reach extends to anyone who deviates from the State’s rigid standards, such as interracial couples or ideological dissenters.

Using invasive technologies like neural stimulators, virtual reality, and hormonal treatments, the program erases personal memories and rewires emotional responses to instill heterosexuality, gender conformity, and Christian values. Religious conversion is a central aspect, with subjects forcibly integrated into theocratic norms through rituals and indoctrination. Framed as rehabilitation, the program is a brutal tool of authoritarian control that obliterates individuality and underscores the danger of merging state power with rigid ideology.
