This is one of the best episodes in Black Mirror. It reminded me of Metalhead episode in a sense that I did not enjoy 40 mins of a woman screaming and running without knowing what's happening in that crazy world, but here in White Bear this is exactly the thing; you should at least know that this is pointless torture! It broke my heart when she said "I'm a human being", she begs and cries everyday and yet no one in the show doubted the whole thing!
Yes, people can get really cruel and dreadful, especially when they collectively believe that they have the right to judge and punish. The mark on the screens reminded me of the Nazi's swastika, and no surprise that I was very familiar with the euphoria and blind belief of the audience in the episode; we have seen this with Hitler, Rwanda, Middle east, etc.
When you're strong and you think you're on the right side/class/race/religion, you can be really really inhumane to the extent that you enjoy repeated pointless torture to a human for THE SAME CRIME.
Very well written and very well acted as well.
