Well, when you make claims suggesting that large groups like the “entire medical profession” may be acting on motives other than what they claim, or that medical experts may be just scamming money out of people, it does sound like a conspiracy theory.
- DoreenMichele 9y agoSo, basically, you are accusing me of wildly overreacting not because I am but because you are keen to heap additional attacks on me for some reason. Criticising an industry as having inherent conflict of interest is not remotely a conspiracy theory. I think I am done here. This is a really tiresome pattern on HN of late where two or more people gang up on me and use bad faith tactics and then I get downvoted etc. It's a no win situation for me and seems entirely unrelated to whatever point I have tried to make.

- newfoundglory 9y agoThis is bizarre. It’s not “ganging up on you” for two separate people to think that your behavior is weird, and it’s not bad faith tactics either. If this happens to you a lot then I’d guess that you frequently seem to be misjudging other commenters here.
- DoreenMichele 9y agoIf this happens to you a lot then I’d guess that you frequently seem to be misjudging other commenters here. That's another unfounded personal attack. Women and other minorities often have a hard time in environments dominated by white males. It has nothing to do with them doing something wrong. They are simply demographic outliers.
- newfoundglory 9y agoIt’s not unfounded, it’s based entirely on information you provided. And being a minority (as I am, too) does not automatically mean any social difficulties are caused by demographics.
