That story is horrifying on so many levels. If even half the claims in there are true, all the “adults” involved deserve the slowest, most painful death imaginable.
Holy shit. I read about it in the news when it was shut down, but didn’t have these horrifying details. The school was two towns away from mine. How could that be going on and we “neighbors” be oblivious?
Oh, it’s my turn.

Pretty much all of the claims have been corroborated. Even if it didn’t happen to him, it happened.
Fucking hell.
A lot of thought and logistics go into those hell holes.
It’s kind of amazing how it all seems to have started with some cult in the 50s.
I’m not trying to sound “actually”, abusive cults were around before the 1950s.
None of them are standalone or limited edition.
Synanon in particular seems to come up quite a lot in and around the troubled teen industry.
Though I’m admittedly not an expert in any of this.
The fact that places like can exist terrific me. The people that prop up those systems are absolute scum.

I only found out about it less than a month ago, also from a lemmy comment.
I sometimes think my teen years were traumatic, which they were, but compared to everyone sent to Élan I definitely had it good.
The fact that it was eventually closed down because of online activism makes me an even stronger supporter of a free and open Internet.
I’ve been reading this on and off all day and god damn is it an absolute fucking roller coaster of a story! Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks, I love graphic novels and never read that one. Enlightening true horror
