That might be a reasonable theory to explore. But once you start exploring, it looks less and less like coincidence. Not just Seed people, but so damned many of us who have been through confrontational tc style (synanon based) programs report the same issues. It's like the way so many people have similar dreams about highschool; usually they're in class under some especially stressful situation when they realize they're naked or somehow unprepared and about to make an ass of themselves.
If it were just a few people or they had these dreams with a number of different backdrops (people do have them about the workplace sometimes, but you don't hear as much about that) why then you could write it off as unrelated. But the fact that so damned many people have essentially the same type of anxiety response to the classroom
strongly suggests that it's something more to do with the classroom setting, less to do with the individuals.
Same thing here. If you really want to know then go look at some of the other forums and see what people have to say. If you don't really want to know, but just want to convince yourself that this is entirely dismissable, then by all means don't read anything or talk to anyone who would know. One very effective way to maintain that sort of illusion is to simply say "Sorry, I can't talk to you" or, better, "I don't choose to talk to you." Contempt prior to investigation, works every time! We should find a way to bottle that shit up for sale!
