      (Attempt at applicability:) how "compradores"[0] can provide superior[1] Pastoral Care to , eg, ICE-chimps[2] after having said chimps realise their old bosses, comrades, even their own "archaic needs", have been betraying them all along [3]

      [0] "sellers", as in PH of his "foxwork"?

      [1] superior in the sense that the welfare will be bespoke but proportional to the struggle and schlep put in by the chimp on his guided path to salvation

      [2] we are all part of the chimp troupe, though some may cosplay at foxes. So that wasn't meant to be derogatory

      [3] guess this is the "(psychological) warfare" part of this 2 part process.

      Recommendations for tales of how historical (actual, WWII) Nazi bullies got a payout in such futuristic pastoral care? (Part1 or 2)

      Quotes from the aforementioned books that precede the above welcome too! (I'm guessing mostly for Part1 if any, but UKL might have covered some of Part2)
