I am all for rehabilitation and prison abolition but we have to acknowledge the truth that there are some people who *simply cannot* be rehabilitated
There are rare people so far gone, so thoroughly broken, that they *have* to be locked away for the good of society, because allowing them to walk free — no matter how much treatment they have received — poses an existential threat to the rest of us
I'd argue that all people /can/ be rehabilitated, but they must /want/ to be rehabilitated. Some people will choose to drag the world into hell rather than accept a single helping hand into the light
