I'm sorry, but if you weren't comparing your experience as a poor, oppressed GA to what we did to an innocent prisoner, why exactly did you keep referencing that experience?

If you weren't "in any way" making a comparison, what was your point?
What I was doing was (a) trying to be clever (although this failed miserably - I blame the IQ of the audience) and (b) trying to subtly point out that sleep deprivation IN AND OF ITSELF perhaps does not rise to the level of torture.

Of course being imprisoned wrongfully, in and of itself and without any sleep deprivation, is probably the worst torture on Earth that I can imagine. Adding the sleep deprivation only compounds the misery. I thought that was so evident that it didn't have to be expressly recognized.
