New "Mission" of RPF

Jaffe

@Jaffe

somebody doesn’t complain and Smith gets a notification to appear before the Medical Examiners Board.

They vet the complaint or complaints.
There is an “investigation” prior to this process.
Therefore (and im speculating here because I know nothing about said case) this licensing agency or medical board - THEY have deemed there is something to look into.

This isn’t about Booboo on the RPF got his feelings hurt

This is the Board determining if anything needs addressing.
And if it’s about protecting children- I support it.

Lol since when do we trust the Board to make a just decision?

I watched Dr. Paul Thomas in real time get his license suspended, lose his practice, and ultimately forced into retirement by the Board over his vaccine beliefs. Something we all align with. He wasn’t even anti-vaccine. Didn’t matter. The Board made his life hell. It’s all documented on his YouTube channel.

We all know Board investigations are just making sure you’re inline with their status quo.

Sending complaints of Garret to the Board has nothing to do with patient safety concern, but some vendetta stemming from the RPF drama earlier in the year.

Yes
Healthcare / the medical industrial complex is generally a cesspool of thought and action
I know first hand- it is the sector in which I work

Smith and RPF aside-
Parents need to be encouraged to nourish- not restrict
I don’t care if it’s keto, low vitamin A, vegan
These are not good for children

Not sure why one would support someone who is misguiding clients through pushing supplements and a subscription service of baseless science

I would think that Smith appearing before the medical examiners board would be using the process as intended.

Your attempt to conflate the Arizona Naturopathic Physicians Medical Board with the Oregon Medical Board in different contexts is spurious at best. "The board" will apply due process and reveal its own faults on record. Which is one of the reasons "mainstream" medicine is in a state of utter disarray right now.

The specifics in process are a democratic issue. And "certified" "professionals" bear some responsibility to shape or dismantle it in both directions for their proximity to institutions. Whether they like it or not. Whether they're engaged in conversation or being made an example.

As do you. And I (different country, similar paradigm). Even if your metabolic rate is too low to think it through in context. Assuming there aren't other reasons you're being obtuse.

Have a great day Jaffe.

@Peatful I think the solution there is for the parents to stop following the dictates of authority figures and fad trends rather than haul Dr Dipshit before the board.

@Hando-Jin

America will probably be needing another temporary Elysium to deal with the consequences of this notion. A "Metaverse" is unlikely to cut the mustard.

It is of course entirely possible I'm simply missing Shaolin wisdom. I certainly wouldn't mess with a practitioner of such things.

Peatful

@Hando-Jin

Idealistically, of course

Again, this is my corner of the world,
and realistically, we need principled and “egoless” practitioners
Among many other things….

This is one of the primary reasons I paid attention to Peat

Compare these men…

Peatful

All this pro Smith or Smith is the victim (simplifying this because im at work) is shocking to me and quite misguided

Hando-Jin

@Peatful I feel like Smith's time in the sun ended already

Well
Wouldn’t that be grand

If you ever want to explain why you think that-
Im all ears

Hando-Jin

@Peatful because we're the only idiots talking about him

ThinPicking

Your inner and outer voice may be a touch more significant than you realise. But don't let it go to your head (hold it in your heart).

Peatful

@Hando-Jin

OK
Thx
not the angle I was expecting

They changed a whole website -
threw a genius of a man under the bus and has called his life’s work toxic because of their stupidity and lack of understanding

In principle alone- yes- I will talk about that

For me, ultimately, this is about the integrity of Peat’s name, work and legacy
It’s not about these unfuckable idiots

Peatly

Well said @Peatful, even the sweary bit

Peatful

@Peatly appreciate it

ThinPicking

Amazing, thanks.

I'll watch through properly tomorrow but...

"That's quite an interesting statement from this individual."

Yes sir Mr Fave. Yes sir. A lot going on there.

A Jennifer... Wild horses? (A reference to a quotation that landed.)

Couldn't drag me away?

ThinPicking

Ah sorry that was probably confusing.

I recalled an Isadora Duncan quote from RPF, my brain had folded in to a meta-meme with the Rolling Stones. From the other side, with memory and (probably) an unhealthy degree of humour.

'they' is perhaps ten incorrigible religious maniacs and maybe another ten people on twitter following this low vitamin A thing

I don't think it has the momentum to fully obscure Ray, self-implosion is probably more likely.

Maybe what bothers me the most is that place was always doing damage to Ray's name and his work and we're acting like it's new. It's just more insane and overt now thanks to Chuck's midlife meltdown.
