    For some context, the Great Barrington Declaration and its authors have made numerous false and misleading statements for the entire pandemic Good to see social media giants taking actionpic.twitter.com/oPs9P1zHvK

        If we're really looking for an appropriate publishing comparison, deplatforming an organization is more akin to refusing to publish someone's book than to burning it

        No one is obligated to give you a platform, and if a company decides to remove their support after you spread misinformation it should not be surprising

        According to someone who was at its signing, the Great Barrington Declaration's FB page was taken down by anti-vaxxers. Maybe its authors, who care so much about censorship in science, should channel its resources toward addressing this issue that undermines herd immunity. https://twitter.com/gbdeclaration/status/1358449223197466627 … pic.twitter.com/UUOUyN2Zee

        Ironic indeed, given their tacit endorsement and support of anti-vaccine ideas

        The damage and suffering they, and others like them, have caused in this pandemic is for the books. What a rotten legacy they each leave, may karma be as cruel as she can be and may history never forget nor forgive.https://twitter.com/lalytatweets/status/1358564439918804999?s=21 …

        Sweden was the model for The Great Barrington Declaration and their herd immunity by infection delusion gave the world a never ending nightmare full of regrets. 🧵on how Sweden made sure it got—for now—over 160,000 #LongCovid & the worst excess mortality since 1918 #coronavirus https://twitter.com/AndreiaSaveSwe/status/1358532491909472259 …

        It’s hard to muster sympathy for the Great Barrington Declaration authors. They peddled misinformation that was used as an excuse for inaction by Trump & Johnson. They were advisers to an awful anti-vaxx website—the anti-vaxx nonsense was taken down, thx to advocacy by @malar0ne

        The bit about censorship is also kind of weird coming from people who regularly collaborated with government officials who intimidated/shut out other scientists & meddled with datahttps://www.sun-sentinel.com/coronavirus/fl-ne-coronavirus-florida-desantis-spin-ss-prem-20201203-tyjmgkos6bd7vo7vnripqliany-htmlstory.html …

        Recently I compared the first 50 signatories to the first 50 of the John Snow Memorandum just for fun. Almost no signatory of the GBD published anything related to the pandemic. Also the h-index of the signatories is more than twice as low compared to the ones of the JSM. 🤨

        Im pretty sure its not just coincidence and it will go on like this... Also every name of the 6900 signatories of the JSM is visible but the GBD only published around 400 from 13000. And I also found a person twice in the first 40 signatories... 🤦🏻‍♂️😂
