Hard to see it differently than the equivalent of "God works in mysterious ways". True, the brain is complicated. No, that does not mean anything. The same thinking for "some people fake illness, therefore surely you are". No, it does not follow. This is logical fallacy. The whole is more than...

The last day of a flu feels amazing compared to the worst of it, but it's still pretty bad and doesn't mean much until you can get back to normal activity levels. Most of us just adjust to a normal that a healthy person would be horrified to imagine having to suffer when we are in remission...

This is all well above my meager understanding of biology, but this seems interesting: From Wikipedia (quotes below are all from wiki, the paper is not yet available on sci-hub): Higher levels is not at the same level as dramatic increase, so cell damage may not occur at slightly elevated...

So weird that physicians unfortunate enough to develop the disease seem to come to the conclusion that the dominant paradigm is completely wrong and that the original understanding, the one erased by the psychosocial ideological model, was pretty much as good as it gets until we find the root...

It's just self-preservation. They made mistakes, built their career on implementing their mistakes in the real world, with disastrous consequences. Now they're just trying to keep accountability at bay just long enough to retire peacefully and will continue implementing their mistakes because...

Hubris is rarely expressed this clearly. Great example of Dunning-Kruger as well. This is exactly the opposite attitude someone working in a life or death profession should adopt. This explains a lot. Don't get high on your own farts, people.

That's literally the model behind MLM and other types of pyramid schemes. It creates an escalation of commitment that forces people to try to recoup their sunk cost and continue to spend. Also: cults, and casinos. Should not forget gyms, too, but that's a different topic.

Wat? That sounds like the literal description of a medical doctor.... Oh, he means "symptoms", as in imaginary symptoms that don't actually exist. Yeah... I'm not so sure about the whole "using the same word to mean two different things" thing.

Ugh. What a vile person. At least the record is permanent. It will take years for people to take a look into his sabotage but it's well preserved, fortunately he is so full of himself that his own website will be a big part of his own personal archive of doom, thanks to the Internet Archive.

I don't think it's jumping, though. It just reached a critical mass, it's been building for a long time. I mentioned it a few times before, those hush hints at having been threatened but not daring to put details forward out of fear of retaliation. It's a clear pattern, and a long one at that...

You can directly paste Twitter links directly in the text editor. The forum code handles the rest.

Oh, well, I know you are, but what am I?!

Or an Austin Powers reboot? Michael Sharpe is: International man of self-owns

Given the pace (pun intended) of complaints, you'd almost think they have staff dedicated to sending complaints and intimidating critics. That seems like way too much work for a busy professional. Completely abnormal and puzzling:

That one is a bit more on the bizarre side but... human rights? The victim complex is so dense it risks collapsing into a black hole any minute now.

My, that's a pretty long pattern of intimidation from Mr Knight.

Bristol University, yes. Found it: https://www.s4me.info/threads/michael-sharpe-skewered-by-johnthejack-on-twitter.3464/page-53#post-81416 More than once, and vice-chancellor to chancellor is just excessive. If that's not harassment... Given their bizarre claims of "borderline psychopaths"...

Sharpe tweeted to Hilda Bastian that he wanted to offer her assumptions. I don't know how you offer someone assumptions. I don't think that's a thing. But it does seem to fit the pattern. That's probably asking too much of Bastian but I hope we find out eventually how someone offers assumptions...

I declare this can of worms open. Many thanks to professor Sharpe, truly the master of self-owns and Michael Sharpe's biggest (unwitting) critic and foe.

That seems to be the operating procedure in Norway, with the LP coaches basically being presented as patient advocates who have recovered and are spreading the gospel of the totally-not-snake-oil-cult LP.
