This is what happens in dogged pursuit of 'right' and 'justice'.
At a certain level it creates divisions and everyone gets harmed, including the bystanders and victims.
For example they take a child who doesn't know what is going on and start asking them questions, like "did so and so hurt you" and the child is just uncomfortable because it's really weird to be asked those questions for no apparent reason. The interviewers take this discomfort as hiding or repressing some form of abuse, and they persist, and persist, trying to get a 'truth' that they are already looking for which in some cases isn't even there.
Honestly, people who constantly look for wrong are either going to find it, or cause it.
Yeah. I mean, everyone wants children to be safe from those who might abuse or have abused them. But the methods used with impressionable kids with the imbalance of power and maturity can result in some pretty twisted outcomes all on their own.
There is a division between tradition and innovation, I do reject innovation if I think it threatens what I see tradition as having served, often in an unacknowledged and "anonymous" way, not because it is simply contra tradition. I also use that word tradition in a sociological or normative sense, not in an ideological, identity or prefabricated way.
I haven't been able to discern how innovations aren't serving the same traditions in some of the positions you resist, and if the innovations are serving in the same way sociologically rather than ideologically, I'm not sure what your argument with them is sometimes except simple personal distaste. But I appreciate you sharing your criteria here, and I will take that into account when trying to understand your positions in the future.
I don't know if this involved planting memories, but it does involve one of the most horrific abuses by state employees of all time.
It's quite the horrific nightmare, and so silly. If you sit children down for a long period of time, disrupting their lives, separating them from their caregivers, and keep hounding them with the same questions for hours and days on end, isn't it obvious that any result you get from them will be useless as far as testimony goes, because they'll say anything to get out of a painful/traumatic situation?
