1. This is "Hollie The Card".
She's a Doctor, Physician, PhD, MA, Clinical Psychologist, Hospital Consultant, PTSD consultant, Long Covid Consultant.
(Thread)

A “Hospital Consultant”, would probably mean a senior doctor, in the UK at least.


With some high profile followers, like TV's Eammon holmes. And radio host Mark Dolan.
Former Kremlin advisor Alexander Nekrassov (Twitter username: StirringTrouble), follows Hollie too.

@Femi_Sorry, a British political activist
and
@DavidLammy, a British MP.

She’s tweeted mostly negative things and insults at @DavidLammy, more than 300 times.
Neither of them have ever replied, so the messages could be defined as unwanted trolling.
The real people want to know!”
- Signed the Oxford/Luxembourg Doctor Academic Author Gymnast PhD Long Covid Medical Consultant Lecturer.

But her public comments are unambiguous.


As she has used many different spellings and names over the past 15 years.
Including “Hillary Faversham” in the mid 2000s. On her old website from that time.

The account used to be called @ HollieCardiff before it was Hollie The Card.

There doesn’t appear to be anyone called “hollie”.


The last couple of seconds of this video, show his face, as he tried to upload a video of Hollie.

Can you please tell me which hospital your doctor….friend…is currently a front line NHS doctor at?
Thankyou!"

But thankfully her Doctorly advice doesn’t seem to include covid denial, or anti-vax stuff.
But not everyone has the right to claim to be a doctor.
Or send near-daily harassment to political opponents.

I'm going to make a bomb shell statement here around the turn of the year, something so risky that I face prospects of the Twitter account being attacked or even banned.

It's about my very uneasy Twitter experience over the past 2-6 months, the worst I could ever remember.
You see, I realized in the last few months that, by translating information and news related to one of the fastest growing spaceflight powers of the world...I inadvertently became a spreader of PRC propaganda.
And with me exactly 180 degrees away from them, I feel scared.
It actually started a few years ago - it's not hard to meet Chinese Twitter users interested in spaceflight, either those living overseas or find a way to climb over the wall. Not surprisingly, many of these S/F enthusiasts are interested in their own military too.
This steadily grew with my followers' count until the flagship Chinese spaceflight missions of 2020 (Chang'e 5 especially but also many others) brought in dozens of them liking/re-tweeting my info tweets sometimes, and similar no. of such followers every month.
I do casually check these new followers/users sometimes. To my horror, far too many of them routinely insults, attacks, mocks others who they see as "anti-China" or spread potential mis-information, even blatant attacks, that started off w/ their state media/spokesperson.

Every single critic of "cancel culture" just thinks the wrong people are getting canceled. pic.twitter.com/DDIVccj8zV

Obviously, people will disagree about which norms are important, about how bad it is to violate them, and thus about how severe the social cost ought to be. That's just pluralism, man, and it's good.
It's important to openly talk through these substantive differences, which is why derailing these conversations with hand-waving moral panic about "cancel culture" is obnoxious and illiberal.
Screaming "cancel culture!" when somebody pays a social costs other people have been fighting hard to get others to see as necessary is often just a way to declare, with no argument, that the sanction in question was not only unnecessary but in breach of a more important norm.
It's impossible to uphold social norms without social sanctions, so obviously anti-cancelers are going to want to impose a social cost on people they see as imposing unjustly steep social costs on others.

Like company moats, your personal moat should be a competitive advantage that is not only durable—it should also compound over time.

Moats should be:
- Hard to learn and hard to do (but perhaps easier for you)
- Skills that are rare and valuable
- Legible
- Compounding over time

4/ Before the arrival of recorded music, what used to be scarce was the actual music itself — required an in-person artist.
After recorded music, the music itself became abundant and what became scarce was curation, distribution, and self space.
5/ Similarly, in careers, what used to be (more) scarce were things like ideas, money, and exclusive relationships.
In the internet economy, what has become scarce are things like specific knowledge, rare & valuable skills, and great reputations.
