    David Gorski, MD, PhD Retweeted David Diamond

    Hilariously, David is unknowingly supporting @AnnMarieNavar's comparison. Antivaxers frequently go straight for the pharma shill gambit, and his first go-to move is to invoke the pharma shill gambit rather than addressing substance—very much like an antivaxer.😂https://twitter.com/LDLSkeptic/status/1144280418277044227 …

    David Diamond @LDLSkeptic
    @AnnMarieNavar has written an offensive editorial about statin denial: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamacardiology/fullarticle/2736328 … comparing statin critics to anti-vax; could COI be a factor? Dr Navar receives $ from Janssen, Amarin, Amgen,Sanofi,Regeneron,AstraZeneca, NovoNordisk,Sanofi, Regeneron. @FatEmperor

        True, in his second Tweet he refers to a review article, but his FIRST move is the pharma shill gambit, just like an antivaxer, not referring to evidence.

        Replying to @gorskon @AnnMarieNavar

        David - You found it amusing I pointed out she's paid by 9 drug companies. Not unreasonable to ask why she points only to a web site as the source of statin adverse effects. Here's substance: my comment/review has 60 pubs on statin effects she ignored:https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0205138 …

        Antivaxers say the same thing about @DrPaulOffit and @PeterHotez. And, yes, when the pharma shill gambit is your FIRST move, that's just like an antivaxer. No one's saying COIs don't matter, but your choice to use an ad hominem first before addressing evidence is not a good look.

        Let us all beware the use of false equivalence as a rhetorical device in these days when truth is under attack in the public sphere.

        Replying to @Sugarfreedom9 @AnnMarieNavar

        In this case, it's not false equivalence. David's first move was right out of the antivax playbook. It's not a good way to start if he wants to show @AnnMarieNavar wrong. It's exactly the opposite of a good way to start.
