The Seed Discussion Forum / Re: split twice,lauderdale ''74

And as for going to the police, well, they sent us there to begin with! The courts, the cops, school counselors, shrinks, all were delighted to send us to the Seed. And no one was going to hear anything against it. Some people tried to speak out. There was a word for them, and I don't remember it, but it was some derogatory and dismissive term to indicate they were nothing but trouble-makers.

Hard to understand, I know, but brainwashing is hard to overcome. I think it was about ten years or so before I realized what I had been through. And just as long for my parents to see it, or maybe longer. Otherwise we surely would have trtied to stop any further abuse. It was like coming out of a thick fog.

The Seed Discussion Forum / Early 1970's Lauderdale Seed

Anyone around from this time period? We were in the little run-down house in Ft Lauderdale town, then moved to the warehouse west of town. Then there was a time in the blimp hanger and a brief stint at the old racetrack in Miami.
I remember Shelly, Libby, John U., not many others.

I split twice also. This was back in 1972. The Seed is still too painfull to discuss much.
Maybe it worked for some people. Maybe if they hadn't been sent/put there they would have gone somewhere else where treatment wouldn't have left them so damaged.
I can believe any wild thing about Art and his cult leaders. They were that spooky. I am only glad that they didn't have us drinking kool-aid like another cult we know.
About 5 years into my Seed immersion, I was in Thailand at the Intercontinental Hotel. A young man came and sat at my table, being a flirt, and I saw he had a BEER in his hand! I looked around to make sure no one saw me with this 'druggie'! I was in THAILAND for god's sake! After that I came to my senses and had nothing more to do with the Seed.
I only wish its influence were so easily dismissed.

John was one of the more amiable jailers...
