      1. I attended boarding school ’90-92. For 3-4 years after this I actually defended the hazing that took place. Brain conditioning is too real.

      Of course some people still defend it throughout their lives so I’m glad I was able to break out of that frame.

    Whenever I see students expelled because of hazing rituals I always wonder though: why are the adults never held accountable? 😤

      Adults are obviously aware of decades of hazing. But they are more insistent on staying out of media than addressing the issue. 😢

        In fact, I’ve seen examples of serious abuse known by the whole school, where perpetrators are punished only after media learns about it. 🤔

          Adults (having known for a year) feign outrage.

            The real outrage of course is about ending up in media and risking the loss of parental school sponsors.

              So this was on my mind today after re-reading my Swedish post on my experience: axbom.se/jag-minns-helvetet-pa-jorden Nothing more to see here, carry on.
