The concept of "exile" is inherent to Hubbard's "justice system". While the word "exile" isn't used, the concepts of "suppressive person", "expulsion", "SP declare", and "disconnection" are used in Scientology, and used OFTEN, to SEGREGATE a person AWAY from other Scientologists.
This is part of any effective totalitarian mind-control system. In systems where there are no protections against physical harm, the brutes simply KILL all people who refuse to stop supporting the bullies. Or, before that, they try to shut them up by various THREATS of harm, and torture. The aim is always to remove ANY IDEA that is counter to the ideas the bullies want you to accept. Simply, they get rid of any person whose ideas fail to support and/or are critical of the dictators. So it was for Hitler, Hussein, Stalin and every other brutal leader who demanded the acceptance of ONLY their ideas.
It is the same in Scientology, but due to protections against outright murder and torture in western societies, Hubbard had to figure out another way to get the "dangerous and toxic ideas" out of close proximity to the true believers. Thus, we now have "high crimes", "suppressive acts", "expulsion", "declares", and "disconnection".
These factors act to keep the "thought pool" PURE in Scientology - meaning that the ONLY ideas that members continue to contact are Hubbard's ideas. The disconnection segregates the "dangerous ideas" away from the group. Threats of disconnection keep the sheeple in line, and Scientology members actually internalize all the threats, and monitor themselves to stay away from critical views (Internet web sites, newspaper articles, etc.). In Scientology that is called "keeping your ethics in".
Dictators are very careful to heavily control which ideas are acceptable and which ones are not. The Scientology indoctrination system and Study Tech set the boundaries on what ideas are acceptable - Hubbard's.
And, the Scientology "ethics and justice system" operates to 1) monitor, 2) detect and 3) quickly remove ANY viewpoint or idea that runs counter to the Scientology DOGMA.
I remember when I was declared. The OSA assholes told me to move away from Clearwater. They wanted me FAR AWAY physically.
Separating the over-indoctrinated Scientology believers from ANY source of information that counters the views of Hubbard or management is a TOP PRIORITY in Scientology - and always has been.
The Scientology ethcis and justice system was never about "ethics" or "justice" - it was and is ONLY about CONTROLLING PEOPLE.
