@briantylercohen.bsky.social Simple idea - ban anonymity on social media. Everyone has the right to say what they want, but they shouldn’t have the right to be free of repercussions. If you are going to shout something on the town square, people will see who you are. Attach to SSN or similar.

Happy to share an invited article I wrote looking at what
#EM in Australasia can learn from the #NHS for Emergency Medicine Australasia.
