Technically, the term "brainwashing" involves drugging the victim and the use or threat of use of physical force. Pathways Family Center uses far more refined methods of modern thought reform/behavior modification/mind control, such as total time domination, social isolation, interrogation and confession, methods which are known in respected research literature to have a lasting mental health impact on a certain percentage of victims.

Sarcasim?
After all methds mentioned above, one needn't be drugged to suffer lasting impact.
My sarcasim...Well Duh!
A joke right? An attempt at dark humor?
Is it just a "certain pertcentage of victims"?
The effect it had on the author is clear..."Surely thou jest"...but to think it funny? The fact that it is funny is disturbing. The opposite side of the coin indicates an acceptance of the ideology...I am hard pressed to distinquish which is more disturbing.
Yeah...dark humor (eh, maybe), I just dont get it.
In Peace
