Comment this is an op ed masquerading as science (Score 2) 73

just because this is published under the Nature umbrella doesnâ(TM)t make this science. This is an Op Ed from a nephrologist who literally has a book (or three) to sell. from his own autobiography: Richard J. Johnson, M.D. is Emeritus Professor of Medicine a at the University of Colorado since 2008. A graduate of the University of Wisconsin, Madison, with a major in Anthropology, and a graduate of the University of Minnesota Medical School, Minneapolis, he is a physician and nephrologist whose research, which has been funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has focused on the role of sugar, and especially fructose, in driving obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and kidney disease. Much of this work has explored the role of fructose metabolism, especially the generation of uric acid, in driving this phenotype, and his work has included studies ranging from molecular biology, integrative physiology, and evolutionary biology. He is the author of The Sugar Fix (Rodale and Simon/Schuster, 2008) which introduced the first low fructose diet, and also The Fat Switch (Mercola.com, 2012) which explores the role of fructose in driving the obesity epidemic. His new book, Nature wants us to be Fat, was published in 2022 (Benbella publishing)

"When I cancel my subscription, Caomcast doesn't come and erase all my fucking video tapes!" Yes, and you're perfectly free to attach a recording device to your computer and record this music to a CD. They won't come and erase those. They will, however, eliminate your access to the original source. The analogy works. "It doesn't mean they are RIGHT." They have a right to offer whatever service they want to, with whatever terms they want to. You have a right not to participate.
