That may not be her premise. But it is not only my premise, it is my certainty. I know for absolute fact that your premise is false. And you should, too. But I recognize that you have committed yourself to telling this Big Lie in the hopes that people might come to believe it. Which says more about their gullability than anything else.

Found the premises. whew I am sure Poet became ill, because of 9/11, because of her obsession with CH and his with her, and because of things in her own 3d life. If she needed medical care because of posting on SI, I can only tell you that blaming someone else for that strikes me as absurd. There is only one person to blame if reading SI makes you ill, and that is you, the person connecting to SI. If I read a book that makes me ill, I close the book. If I watch a movie that makes me ill, I turn it off. If SI unhinged me, I wouldn't come here. All the things you mention have been done by others on SI. They happen all the time. People become obsessed with other aliases all the time. If a personality is too weak to take the stuff that goes on here, even as an alias, then that personality does not belong on the net. Children do not belong here, and adults who want to be treated like children do not belong here.
