Jonathan, this is great stuff about Deshong, I didn’t know much about him until recently. Deshong is definitley a bluffer and deluded. He has tried to converse with me a few times and I have asked him nicely to NEVER engage with me. He has a problem understanding that.

I noticed his blogspot “dissidents@dumbees” is that of a 15 year old whining and ranting. If he were of some scientific or mature person I would chat with him but perhaps those horrid drugs have made him crazy or delusional.

again thanks for taking the time to put this out there.

You have yet to master the art of putting words into others’ mouths, Todd. Demented? Evil? Those are your words, not mine.
Nowhere do I say my doctor was an Indian Shaman, rather I mentioned using a similarly described hypnotist as one of several alternative practitioners I have consulted and had success with actually recovering my health, as opposed to treating symptoms with synthetic drugs.
If you “genuinely” care about the health of me or others, you’ll lower the level of bombastic personal attacks that “genuinely” hurt.
The bottom line is that your diligent (though I must add, quite shoddy) work as an anti-”AIDS denialist” activist is apparently being supported by your employer, Baylor Health Care Systems. The question I have is whether they approve of your personal efforts.
I am not responsible for whether or not you lose your job for misusing corporate servers. Only you can be held accountable for your own actions.
Your message suggests you did not lose your job, so for all I know, maybe Baylor supports what you’re doing, though I do notice you didn’t use a Baylor IP address to post this comment.
Oh, and thanks for keeping the conversation civil on my blog. I won’t tolerate the abusive name-calling you do on your blog in comments here.

Yes, Jonathan, that email I sent to you is was surely the work of a demented, evil person. HUH?
I must say that I am shocked and saddened by your response. But if you think that the email I sent out of a sincere concern for your health is worthy of trying to get me fired from a job, then I guess that is your right. But I wish you would take a step back and realize that just because we may have different views about the science of AIDS does not mean that I wrote to you for any reason except that which I politely and professionally expressed to you in that email. A personal email to a moderated blog that would go to you, and only to you. I was genuinely concerned for your health. You had expressed that your doctor is an Indian Shaman and that is why I had no way of knowing that an Infectious Disease doctor had seen your leg. I’m glad it is being taken care of and I wish you no ill will. However, I am just shocked that whatever perceived intent on your part had to manifest itself in trying to get me fired from my job. Please think about your actions before going to the extreme.
Sincerely,
JTD

Hi Jonathan,

This AIDS stuff drives people to madness. I enjoy your blog. You seem like a concerned man, simply trying to figure out what is best for you.

Beware fanatics and dogmatists, who believe in the magical power of pharmaceutical drugs, in the same way that little kids believe in the magical power of Santa Claus.

In good health.

Thanks for your comment and the additional insight, Linda. His initial contact would have come across as quite sincere had I not been familiar with his true personality.

A very well-written blog Jonathan. Thank you for taking the very painful time to post about this extremely unfortunate individual. He has written much about me as well, (so I am told, I’ve never read his sad little blog) all taken “out of context”. He also came to me (in the very beginning of our journey into this world of HIV dissidence) seeming very concerned for my health and welfare. A wolf in sheep’s clothing, for sure. This seems to be his ploy. His Ad Hom attacks are quite pitiful. Really, what that says to me is that he has nothing else in the arsenal to attack with, except Ad Hom.
I sincerely hope his employer will have some concern about how a company employee is spending their time and resources.
And, I believe what Brian posted is correct, some sort of dementia has surely set in. This is NOT normal behavior from a sane person.
Sincerely,
Karri Stokely

Not too long ago I met someone who’s talkin meds daily. He was so delusional, actually way beyond comprehention. This is the same I see in our nemesis, Deshong.
