T3. The best defense is to stay clean, and have a reliable set of loyal and clean friends. Make people think twice of besmirching your good name... Maybe keep a lower profile - public figures are more prone to public attack. And think twice about being political about anything. #healthxph

T3. Ego management is essential - as professionals, it can be tempting to try to "fight fire with gasoline" - but this is a losing proposition IMO. Defend. Disengage. Wait them out. If they are truly suffering from something... they could implode anyway. But I never wish them that. #healthxph

T3. If you are a victim of attack, defend yourself, but also look to disengage quickly. Getting dragged into a mudslinging match with someone is not productive. Desiderata: Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. This is timeless advice. #healthxph

T3. IMO defamation is not a "normal" behavior - any time I encounter someone like this, I usually suspect some mental health or personality disorder (e.g. narcissism, histrionics, borderline, sociopathy, etc.). Unfortunately IMO there is no negotiating with such people. #healthxph

T3. My late father had advice I always took to heart: be nice to people on the way up, because you will see them on the way down too. Keeping on the good sides of people can shield you somewhat. eventually. Also keep records and receipts to defend yourself in case you are attacked. #healthxph

T2. I saw this a lot during the pandemic. Academics and doctors calling each other out - making public statements against each other. I think it was partly the crisis environment, but also a reflection of (latent) personalities. Despite this, not sure if it is a common thing though. #healthxph

T1. I see defamation usually go hand-in-hand with politicking and passive-aggression. It's devastating to be at the receiving end of this and also mind-blowing to realize some people do this intentionally. #healthxph

Good day, #Healthxph fam and friends! I'm Steph from #Dumaguete and I'll be moderating tonight's tweetchat on #Defamation and the healthcare worker. Blog post here! medium.com/@stephmiaco/...

Defamation and the Healthcare Worker

If you have been on social media much lately, you would have likely seen the Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively defamation issue in the US…

243

IMO if many of us went to socmed to "connect", for GenA and GenB, they may find their connection with AI instead. (Remember that teen who commited S due to a character AI?). This change in behavior is something worth watching unfold over the next decade. #healthxph

I have a feeling we've seen peak socmed in recent years - esp with the deterioration of X and FB. Only ads keeps those platforms afloat (and twisted). Bsky hasn't exhibited that decline yet. And Threads and Mastodon haven't quite caught the same momentum. #healthxph

173

T3. I post similar content across FB, Twitter, and LI - and get very different reactions from each platform depending on the topic. Some reason I feel less compelled to do that in Bsky. I'm looking for something different here. Not sure yet what I will find. #healthxph

T3. I'm entering Bsky in my middle age... so my habits here will likely be different from when I joined FB, Twitter, even LI (even Multiply and Friendster once). I feel less pressured to build and chase a following, and I prefer quality here over quantity. #healthxph

151

T2. I'm building my Bsky feed slowly. Good overlap with previous X following but I'm curating more now. I check out starter packs for leads on who to follow but I don't auto follow everyone on a pack. In a way I want to avoid recreating my X feed. Hope Bsky stays pristine. #healthxph

221

T1. My recent Twitter feed was all about about the destruction of humanitarian aid. I'm deeply affected by both the journalism and healthcare fronts of this. #healthxph

231

T1. I'm probably one foot out the door already on X/Twitter. I noticed only political posts and memes get engagement there. Politics quickly gets tiresome (for me) - so as more people I know switch (to Bsky), I will simply follow them out. #healthxph

Everything on Bsky feels like Twitter of yesteryears. Just stuff happening, no toxicity... #healthxph

Had an interesting chat with the One News crew on the topic of BPOs, AI, and jobs. Let me know your thoughts on this. Just basing on the YT comments, I think there's a lot of misinformation to sort out. www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4Sv...

Been in a number of PH AI & education forums lately, and the same themes keep popping up. Thought BSky can be the right place to capture them and see if we can get some insight from the emerging crowd here. 🧵

Lose the battle win the war. That applies to BSky as well.

Is Bsky doing better than that other life raft: Mastodon?

I still have a shelf of better Booksale finds than from brand new or online orders. More power to you.
