We also know that antivaxers are very good at using secret groups on Facebook to organize campaigns of harassment against pro/vaccine doctors, including posting fake negative reviews.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2019/03/20/harassment-doctors-grieving-mother/ …

There are efforts to help, but doctors who want to combat misinformation on suicidal media should know that if they become effective enough they WILL be targeted for harassment. Our efforts to help are inadequate.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2019/03/22/chad-hermann-todd-wolynn/ …

Again, this is not the sole purpose of the organization. There are many fronts to misinformation, half of which is perpetuated by our own...especially on Instagram. BUT it’s still early where we can still help the influx of medical “influencers” do it responsibly

Why do you think medical influencers need help? I think you would be much more successful aligning yourself with those who have been already doing it rather than striking out on your own.

Isn’t that what we are doing? How are we striking out on our own? I’m friends with most medical influencers on IG especially and many share this sentiment that there are many gray areas!

OK, gonna be honest and a little bit blunt here. That news story about you made it sound like you were going to create and lead an army of "medical experts" to "drown out" health misinformation on social media.

That news story sure came across as you striking out on your own and having those who join follow along. Let's just say it rubbed me (and several grizzled veterans of these wars) the wrong way.https://www.cnbc.com/2019/05/31/doctor-recruiting-doctors-to-fight-fake-health-info-on-social-media.html …

I don’t own the internet. I’ve been on Facebook since it was introduced to undergrads at Duke as one of the first schools in 2004. I used Friendster, Xanga, and MySpace. I’m NOT anywhere near the first doc on FB/Twitter/IG/YT, and NEVER claimed to be.

Bit of a straw man there, eh?
I never said you said or implied any of that. I said the story portrayed you as "creating and leading an army of medical experts" to "drown out" health misinformation on social medial. That portrayal rubbed some of us the wrong way.2 replies 0 retweets 2 likes -

A straw man? In the vein of being respectfully hardcore, I didn’t create the headline and Twitter vets don’t come for me...let’s do this together! I also think the AHSM is more than amassing an army.

Respectfully hardcore is nothing against Respectful Insolence. (Google it with my name. It'll become clear.
) Of course my whole thread was about whether we should work together. I was trying to gauge how serious and competent AHSM is. I've been too much of a lone wolf too long.

Maybe I expect too much. Maybe I don't. I don't know. It's who I am, though.
