Defending cherry-picked research by cherry-picking some more. On brand. They must be running out of place for all the cherry pies they'll have to...
One of the many ways this entire ideology is morally and intellectually bankrupt. It's harming completely unrelated people. And, ugh, "falling...
Oops. Looks like the SMC could be in a pickle over this.
By time travelling! We time-travelled to before anyone knew about the disease and convinced the WHO to recognize it before anyone knew it...
Hmmm. Well, I guess fact-checking isn't one of this strongest points. Or rather, someone has problems with object permanence. "I did not know...
I remember an exchange a few months/years ago with John. Sharpe replied to John asking for evidence and threatening to "test it in court". With...
They were all warned about it. Even Wessely does not understand that him being wrong for 30 years does not equate to 30 years of experience, that...

The mutual admiration society lives on.
That is the core of their grievances. Their triumph was eliminating the competition and that making it to the finish line was the victory. Now the...
The impact of which has been deleterious. Like last time with a Reuters article, we have been accused of unspecified misconduct, of being whiners,...
In an interesting twist, Sharpe and Wessely have taken the liberty to address some of the conclusions every reader on the Internet have jumped to...
OK so they basically just destroyed the arguments they just put forward? Wow. Sharpe: "it's not really the trolling", which was half of the...
:laugh: Meanwhile, in the real world: there is more research than ever and the field is growing. One of the things that really pissed me off the...
I agree but it takes all of 12 seconds to find 10 more vitriolic comments on Twitter. That this is what they are falling back on only works...
It's a political strategy. The details don't matter. The only thing that matters is that Wessely is trusted so people don't bother looking into it...
