now, why would scott alexander siskind not want his patients to find that he used their cases for general entertainment of his blog readers? that's somewhat a mystery to my, but perhaps you have some insight here…

It is fully consistent with APA guidelines to publish anonymized cases. If you have information that he didn't do so, you should report him to APA. But surely you are just a troll.

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 don't think this is true. Lori Leibovich's book went into it a bit. (She's a psychologist who wrote about her patients.)

Scott's vivid description of both his contempt and *envy* of the convicted domestic abuser who'd had more girlfriends than him certainly crossed what most people would consider to be some sort of line, regardless of what the APA thinks

So do you believe that psychiatrists should be banned from sharing any negative beliefs about certain behaviors or beliefs? Do you believe that anti-racist psychiatrists are in the wrong? Or does this only apply to the 'other?'

If I ran the APA, sure, I'm a ban-happy Stalinist as we all know But I don't and I wasn't really advocating that Just, you know, the "free marketplace of ideas"

It's clear he's been waiting the whole conversation to use that line. Probably rubbing his hands together and everything.
