struggle sessions usually involve public torture or executions. it's laughable to compare "being mildly inconvenienced" with that.

Struggle sessions in their basic form used social coercement to extract confessions of guilt against some collective cause. This describes the DEI training sessions I've been in well. Admit that you have bias (effectively confessing guilt to a "crime" that gives your employer leverage over you) or get dogpiled and have your refusal to admit guilt cast as evidence of your guilt anyway.
