It's not about whether he committed a formal APA violation, it's about whether his patients might have been offended if they'd known the way he talked about patients on his blog, and if they'd have had a right to know about him doing so before going to him for treatment

The APA standard doesn't require consent or approval, so this is irrelevant. Any patient can read the APA guidelines and is at risk of being published about anonymously by any psychiatrist. If you have an issue with that, you should take it up with APA, not Scott.

I just said I don't care about the APA standard and I am not talking about it I'm not part of any professional association that says I can't say Scott's real name if I want to either

I never at any point said I was going to petition the APA to suspend Scott's license What I said was, if a journalist makes it easier for patients to Google Scott's name and see the general way he talks about patients on his blog, I consider it a moral good

If you are actually serious about that, you should petition the APA to change their policy. You now just come across as someone who rationalizes harm to a person you dislike, not a principled person.

The APA's policy says nothing one way or the other about what journalists should do when writing articles about psychiatrists, since they are not under the authority of the APA

Right, the indefensible part of the argument isn't arguing whether or not Scott is racist, or whether or not him being racist impacts his ability to provide mental health care It's the part where SCOTT'S PATIENTS CAN'T BE TRUSTED TO MAKE THAT ASSESSMENT THEMSELVES

That's not at all the reason why Scott didn't want his patients to read his blog. You are attributing the worst motives (and beliefs) to Scott that you can imagine, which all go against what he has actually written.

They are all completely based on me reading what he has written, and not just accepting his view of himself as automatically accurate (which I gather is what you consider "arguing in good faith" when it comes to yourself, just not the woke SJWs)
