1. Another synonym for brainwashing, mind-tampering,
etc. Introduced in the manual for Blizzard Entertainment's hit
PC RTS
game, StarCraft. Refers to the Terran factions' practices of forcibly conscripting
people, usually criminals ("culturally challenged persons") to serve as infantry, and wiping their memory. They are described as being "Freed from any previous allegiances or ideologies." It has been speculated that the Resocialization process is excruciatingly painful.
In the cinematic
trailer for StarCraft
II, a convicted murderer was being encased in a
suit of Marine armor. He must have been Neurally Resocialized.
