You really are not viewing it through their lenses. They are standing up for their rights and fighting coercion.

That's fine and perhaps I would make the same choice in their situation. But making a statement comes at a price, a price that they knew about in advance and accepted.

How can someone accept something like that? It's not acceptable.

Did they not know that the school would have a "policy" against this when send their children there?

When they sent there ten years ago? It's not relevant, regardless.

Yet, they went to the Tish knowing good and well that this was the price for doing so, so apparently they did accept it

It is absolutely relevant. If they knew the policy when they sent there it is a decision that they made and they waived their rights. This kind of stuff happens all the time. People push into a school while they are unwilling to keep to the rules they knew about before and then "stick up for their rights" not to keep to the rules. I would imagine that anyone enrolling in a school that is very explicitly under the guidance of a Rebbe knows that if there is a breakoff from the Rebbe the school will remain under the Rebbe and expect those breaking off to leave the school as well.

Just because we're unfortunately used to it doesn't make it any more acceptable.

Hate when people don't use the "quote" button when responding to a specific post
But in the event you were following this,
When my response to a post immediately follows said post, and is obviously a response to said post,
I don't feel the need to 'quote' said post.

I am not sure what you find unacceptable about it. Maybe it is just that I am not chassidish and ammissing something. If so, maybe you can help me out with that.

The people that went are questioning the ownership f the school too. The Rebbe didn't build the school the parents did. They'll gladly take the brand off the school and keep their kids there.
