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 the fatal part of the argument It's not like I'm personally emailing his patient list telling them to drop him as a provider It's saying that having the information *available online* is unethical and harmful

It's saying that if they Google his name and find his blog and read his own words as he posted them for consumption by the public, this will harm his reputation That they're too dumb/ignorant/crazy/brainwashed by wokeness to make that decision, they must be protected from it

If you prefer to write pseudononymously you should have that option. Is that seriously the point being debated here?

If I were gonna write pseudonymously, I would not choose My First Name + Middle Name as the pseudonym. That would just be asking to be caught out. *Especially* if I also published about similar topics under My First Name + Last Name, and all three names were easy to find out.

Did this happen as a sudden overnight leap in attention from a few hundred followers to a few million Because what most people who actually valued their privacy in such a situation would do is say "I'm shutting this blog down because I value my privacy"
