OTOH, he has admitted one of his errors, grudgingly, as this screenshot shows. Amusingly, he is either oblivious that @AliNeitzelMD is obviously trolling him or intentionally ignoring the troll in order to feed his credulous readers a narrative that he's somehow "won."

An actual honest and ethical journalist would have added a note saying that he had altered the text to correct an error and explaining what the error had been. Of course, as a journalist @thackerpd appears to be neither honest nor ethical.

Well, @thackerpd is the conspiracy monger gift that keeps on giving. Today, I noticed that he had quietly altered the text to remove the error without mentioning that he was correcting an error. Here are the before-and-after screenshots.

@OKAYFINE_Music @ScienceBasedMed @han_francis Imagining that the people correcting anti-vaccine misinformation are taking money from big Pharma to do it will not make anti-vaccine misinformation less wrong; just make you wrong on another thing. I hope you read the post.

@OKAYFINE_Music @ScienceBasedMed @han_francis Again, wanting to imagine that the people correcting you are paid isn’t going to make you less wrong. We took this picture in a public street to make fun of antivaccine shill claims. Maybe we should have realized people who fall for antivaccine misinformation won’t get this.

You've commented exactly once on my blog, and I let it publish after my antispam automoderation had held it up because you were a new commenter. Here's the link. #comment-476577" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">respectfulinsolence.com/2023/06/14/ste…

I'm using a dormant and rarely (now) used account because my main one was blocked by Mr. Kirsch and I want him to see this: Dude, you were *never* blocked on my blog. Ever. Nor did I delete *any* attempt by you to comment on any of the posts I've written about you.
Steve Kirsch@stkirsch

Proof that @skepticalraptor is corrupt. I posted a challenge on his blog and I just checked now and he DELETED it rather than allowing it to be posted. This means that both Gorski (@gorskon) and Reiss (@doritmi) and the other anti-anti-vaxxers must now speak out against this dishonest scientific behavior or they are equally corrupt (which we already knew, but this makes it obvious). In addition, have been getting calls from honest raptors demanding that @skepticalraptor stop using the "raptor" brand name because he is tarnishing their brand image. Publishing long blogs attacking me and then deleting my offer to settle the issue by discussing the 5 best scientific papers on each side is wrong, I don't care whose side of the argument you are on. Allowing the ambiguity to continue by refusing to engage in debate is not science.

The hallmark of a good parody account is that I wasn't quite sure whether this was a parody until I clicked on the handle and checked to see if it was a parody account or not.

Holy hell. I'm having flashbacks to antivax 2006!

Precisely. And they don’t seem to realize that they are using *exactly* the same arguments antivaxxers used to use about measles and pertussis vaccines with respect to portraying a vaccine-preventable disease as “natural” and virtually “harmless” and the vaccine more dangerous.
Jonathan Howard MD@19joho

@MattBlye @TotalCytopath @gorskon It’s all a theoretical debate for him, like discussing what would happen if you fell into a black hole. Doctors who work with sick kids grasp the real world consequences. He’s more interested in feeling “special” and “heterodox.” Just another sheltered do nothing talker.
