      I’ve been blogging a long time about the use of crowdfunding platforms to raise money for quack treatments. Apparently GoFundMe has recently banned antivax campaigns. It needs to do more, though. https://twitter.com/Sarah_Mojarad/status/1210432398338318336 …

      Skeptics (like me) have been offering our services to such platforms for years to help differentiate quackery from medicine. Maybe finally @gofundme, @Google, @Facebook, etc., will listen?

          But don’t you get paid enough in shillbucks? The majority of people I have engaged in discourse with regarding quackery have told me I am a shill and I’m well paid by Big Pharma/Big Ag. They have ‘done their research’ so it must be true.

          Skeptic or social skeptic? The Ethical Skeptic has a lot to say about those who claim mantle of skepticism, without in fact practicing the discipline.https://theethicalskeptic.com/2012/05/01/what-is-social-skepticism/ …

          Not likely. They’re not exactly rigorously regulated. If shareholders are fine with the business model, they don’t really care who it is being controversial, as long as the clicks keep rolling in

          So you're for censoring freedom of speech? The right to information? You can't be an American. Those are not the ideals of a patriot of the USA.
