GIDS Dissident, Dr. @MaxDavie, takes down latest post criticizing Dr. Hilary Cass, vanishes from Twitter
🧵: After attacking Dr. Hilary Cass in a paper posted in a Google doc, claiming she recommended @AbigailShrier's Irreversible Damage, then backpedaling the claim, then writing a blog post once again criticizing the Cass Review author, claiming she was dead set on a randomized controlled trial of puberty blockers for pediatric gender dysphoria that he saw as unethical, Dr. Max Davie has stripped his blog site of that posting and vanished from X.

Along the way, he accused me of journalistic malpractice after he emailed me accusations about one of his critics and I published them. He said he told me the information in confidence, but as I told him, he never said anything about it being off the record.
