Treatment Abuse, Behavior Modification, Thought Reform > Hyde Schools
Scary Larry back on campus!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ursus:
--- Quote from: ""Guest"" ---This is yet another astonishing form of Hyde hypocrisy: Attaching those patroizing letters to transcripts alerting recipients that the student fell below the silly Hyde character threshold. If only Hyde would also attach a letter alerting recipients about the number of Hyde faculty and staff who fell below the character threshold. Isn't it remarkable that Hyde feels so free to judge students and parents but is so unwilling to face up to the remarkable litany of character horror stories involving the school's very own faculty and staff?
You can't make this stuff up. Hyde deserves a place in the hypocrisy Hall of Fame (or Hall of Shame).

If this weren't so GodDamn serious, it would be GodDamn hilarious. How aptly and cleverly put, Guest.
The recovery time from Hyde is infinitely longer than the so-called attendance time.

In a nutshell.
--- End quote ---
Joe: Hyde as the solution
Ed: Hyde as victim
Me: Hyde as unindited co conspirator
It is great how false dichotomizing an issue can divert you from the obvious: Hyde negligent in it's duty provide a safe environment for it's charges. Hyde, the great picker of character, had a drunken letch on the fast tract to leadership. Hyde's failure to discern the nature of a staff member lead to one of it's charges to be put into a situation where, instead of an educational experience that lead to emotional and spiritual grow, a life long emotional scar was left.

This situation, with everyone looking to the "authority" as a barometer of moral judgement, and "authority" deftly dodging the bullet by obfuscating the circumstances and turning it into yet another "character lesson," reminds me of Milgram's electroshock experiments at Yale in the 60s.

Hey they were only following orders, just like the millions of Americans who watch Faux News "We Decide. You Obey" or Read Gannett papers for that matter.
We are just sheep, without just leaders, we are all just fucked. Take Bush and Iraq for example ..........

Hyde was tribal. It is all about group cohesion. No critical thinking was involved. That is why you could for example watch a staff member walk up behind a kid walking on an icy path, push the kid, and walk away thinking "he had that coming to him." I don't think that Hyde does what Joe's claims in terms of removing the primitive instincts of kids. I think it just rearranges them.
Instead of having the normal cruelties of adolescent peer groups on the outsiders Hyde refines the peer group and redirects the cruelty in a way that the community deems as acceptable. I used the metaphor of stoning before. I think it is apt. It is after all the same thing when you get down to it: aggressive primitive behavior channeled in a socially sanctioned way.
