Oh, dear, Christopher.

Look. Everyone has seen what happened about your second accusation against Poet of bad behavior, so I won't pursue it.

. But my relationship with that particular poster is no longer something I am interested in discussing with you or having discussed by you.

Too bad, dude. Because you don't HAVE a relationship with "that particular poster," you have an obsession with "that particular poster, and "that particular poster" is alarmed and upset by this, and the only reason you are able to continue indulging your fixation with "that particular poster" is that you threatened to sue SI if they made you stop.

I, on the other hand, am a friend of "that particular poster."

And I don't think a stalker gets to command his victim's friend not to defend his victim when, for example, he issues calumnies against her. I know you would love it if she had to engage with you to defend herself, but she won't, because that is precisely what you are after. So the only defense she will get is from friends.

Here's a practical suggestion that would address both your needs and Poet's. Please consider it:

You stop posting to or about Poet, and I stop posting to you about Poet and never raise again the two instances of unsubstantiated accusations you've now made against Poet.

Might we agree to that?
