核心要点
A Society That Harvests Its Young
Imagine a world where abortion is illegal, but parents can choose to have their teenagers "unwound" - dismantled for their organs and tissues, which are then transplanted into others. This isn't science fiction; it's a disturbing compromise reached after America's Second Civil War over reproductive rights. The resulting "Bill of Life" protects children until age thirteen, after which they become vulnerable to unwinding until eighteen. The most chilling aspect? Society convinces itself this isn't death since 100% of the body continues to "live" in a "divided state" among recipients. What makes this dystopia so unsettling is how plausibly it normalizes horror through language. Teenagers aren't killed; they're "unwound." Execution facilities are "harvest camps." Parents aren't abandoning their children; they're helping them "fulfill their potential." Through these euphemisms, an unthinkable practice becomes routine - much like how our own society often sanitizes uncomfortable truths with carefully chosen words. The system creates categories of disposable youth: troubled teens unwound for behavioral issues, state wards sacrificed to budget cuts, and most disturbingly, "tithes" raised from birth to be unwound as religious offerings.
