We have an annoying troll bent on wasting as much of our time as possible. Let's take a moment and make sure he understands his efforts have backfired.
James, I am a long time paid subscriber and a donor as well. But why not just block him? I would give my eye teeth to have a "silence" button for certain posters in SubStack (most platforms do) but you have one...
I come for rational and open discussion. It's abundantly clear as to this fool's intentions, so why give him any satisfaction?
There are so many bigger fish to fry and you are serving a greater purpose. Please maintain focus and keep your armor polished for the real battles that lie ahead.
Been a follower for a while. Subscribed! Thanks for your extremely important contributions, we appreciate you! Will eventually scrape together some more for the study contribution.....hoping @ holidays....
Donation done! As to banning Hickie from being able to post comments - I agree with you 100%. The world is in the mess it is right now - in large part - because of the wholesale suppression of free speech from Twitter to Facebook to YouTube, not to mention the - the majority of scientific journals and the epic failure of our 4th estate. While Hickie is certainly no Malone, Kory, McCullough or Rose -and his contributions do not add value - leaving him be to rant - is the right thing to do. We might not like what he has to say but if we advocate for banning him, we are no better than those who have been running roughshod over free speech for the last 3 years. I believe in Karma and although it's tough to watch as amazing physicians like Merryl Nass have to fight for their medical licenses - there will be a reckoning for quacks like Hickie.
I will continue to support your endeavors as best I can. You are the few that keep me properly informed and as a retired educator I am privileged to be in your classes!
I will share all you do!
This doctor is moved to the dark side… hypnotized by AMA and the pharmaceutical industry… I am outraged with his behavior!
I have said this before and it needs to be emphasized now… you are a light in the darkness presently around us!
Subscribed, after following along and being thoroughly impressed with your integrity and the importance of your work. That you take time to share results with us is indeed a blessing!
I let my sub expire in hopes of saving some cash but you convinced me. (You and the teen that collapsed during choir practice in Illinois and died. Sudden and unexpected - everyone is baffled.)
Donated to the study as my "Chris Hickie protest" -- LOL. Nice move, that.
Twice I've asked "the Hickie" how many jabs he's gotten and if he's also "boosted". You know, to protect his patients (cough, cough). Wonder why he ignores that question. You'd think he'd be proudly declaring his jabbed and boosted sheepdom, now, wouldn't ya?
Subscribed. Happy to contribute to your growth and sustainability. Great way to raise awareness, by the way. You are one of my most trusted resources. I value your discerning perspective, balance, and expertise when others seem to eventually adopt a certain bias, start name-calling, and get way out into the weeds. Rock on!

Agree with Dr. K.

Bless all that you do Dr. JLW.
