Ever since the founder of Duty to Warn appeared on Watter’s World on Fox News, he has been getting Tweets with threats to kill him and advising him to engage in gross sexual acts.
Here’s my story about the interview. If you haven’t seen the video, it is quite a tour de force.
Now we are getting joint Tweets which are sent to our email inbox as they appear on Twitter.
I haven’t gotten any death threats like this one sent to John yet; but I figure it is a matter of time.
Since John’s email can be easily found because, as a practicing clinical psychologist, he has a contact email on his website. This he is also getting emails like the one below which he said I could share with you:
You can read some more of the Tweets John and I received in the previous two days on my story from yesterday.
So far most of the Tweets I’ve received are positive, but of course that may change. I’ve also had lots of re-Tweets and “likes” including from Lawrence O’Donnell and Thom Hartmann.
I’ll amuse myself today by updating this piece with any new Tweets or emails John and I receive attacking us for being mental health professionals stating what we’ve been saying for over a year: that because of his malignant narcissism and related psychiatric disorders, Trump is too unstable and thus dangerous to have the nuclear codes.
Now that he and I are working on planning the “March for Sanity” scheduled for October, I expect there will be more negative reaction on social media.
So, after 346 stories (aka diaries) on Daily Kos, I am finally getting hate mail.
I think there’s a good chance when this is announced John will end up on Watter’s World again — as Rachel says “stay tuned.”
Addendum:

Hostile??? Is that what you call someone pointing your lies and truth???

Watched Gartner on Watters World. Watched his body language & listened to his paranoia & lies, now I think he belongs in an institution.

Why are so many professionals crazier than the people they think they can diagnose? You, sir, are as crazy as a loon!

The APA are weird people to talk about #ethics. The sooner these Bell Curve cranks get reduced to a smoking hole in the ground, the better.
-
Ditto gay conversion therapy. They kept recommending that til the 80s. They actually explicitly permitted assisting in torture in Bush years
-
Companion piece is also "Men Who Stare At Goats". The "scientific advisors" of the torture programme therein were the APA leaders.
-
Their diagnoses are 80% reproducible. APA diagnoses are reproducible (ie scientific) to what extent? 40%?
-
The German-Austrian Psychiatric Code explicitly *forbids* APA-style diagnoses for certain mental conditions.
-
ONLY the most aggressively racist, antigay and pro-torture "professional" assoc has this antiscientific rule of forcing sub rosa diagnoses.

Yes, I'm a member of Duty to Warn! Hoping for more national coverage. Thanks for reply.
