What the fuck? Reminds me of Jerry Sandusky

I'd say this is the most important quote:

In later interviews, many women who had been posture photo subjects expressed profound embarrassment and pain over the experience, and even guilt about not objecting. Writer and filmmaker Nora Ephron (Wellesley '62) said, "We were idiots. Idiots!"

If you find something obviously wrong, make a noise about it, even if the perpetrators look very serious and proper.

It's easier to say than do it. In an unrelated field, 5 minutes before a medical procedure it's common that they give you some "standard" paperwork that says that they explained all the details of the procedure and all the possible complications. You can sign it, or risk losing your spot and coming one month later (probably without a detailed explanation).

I have always hated the mad scientist archetype in media because it feels anti-intellectual and unrealistic but then you consider Unit 731, Joseph Mengele and all the experiments on black people, children, prisoners and service people in the USA, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unethical_human_experimentatio... you have to wonder if perhaps some of the portrayals aren't a bit tame.

It is disturbing how much psuedo science and unethical shit just gets a pass. If their media is to be believed they talk about polygraphs in the US like they are anything but a means to pressure a confession while the rest of the world regards them as pseudo-science.

Consider that the places forcing freshman to be photographed for what was essentually racist eugenics psuedo science were supposed to be places of learning. Its wild. Like what the hell is wrong with our species?
