Hi Everyone,
I was reading James Coyne's Twitter feed (as I do every day), when I ran across this repost:
Andrew Sabisky @AndrewSabisky
If I were researching ME/CFS I wouldn't be very keen on sharing my data either. This is a field where death threats are not unknown...
....if you draw politically incorrect conclusions. Hard to think of any other area of psychology with such dangerous activist nutcases
So basically, I can understand where King's are coming from on this one cc @lakens @sTeamTraen
Hard to know where to start with this. So to be charitable, it's Twitter, world of 140 characters of flame, everyone either takes offense (me) or give offense (him). And I don't really know who this guy is, he has a psych degree from institute of education in London, and fancies himself a "contrarian" which is always a bad sign. (A fearless truth teller!) a lot of great responses to the "nutcases" thread already, including Phoenix rising's own @Simon, david tuller, Janet Dafoe, and of course @CoyneoftheRealm. So for those with Twitter accounts, please think about adding to this misguided/wrong/ offensive/ ill informed/libelous post, there are just so many ways to go...
JAH
P.S. He is afraid of you
@lakens @foxyforecaster @sTeamTraen a real discussion in this case could easily mean death threats, letter bombs, years of police protection
He gets this all from the Wessely Wikipedia entry. This particular thread is particularly laughable. All you bedridden folks, start makin' letter bombs. What a joke...
