Apparently a fellow DW user who has taken to slandering me, viciously, (I'm not even sure for what)and twisting everything I say beyond belief and reason, operates as Marcus Tullius Cicero diagnosed: "When you have no basis for an argument, abuse the plaintiff." Pro Flaco, Cicero

They are apparently having a problem with a meta-essay I wrote, as a very rough draft, on my A03, and am in the process of reworking to make more coherent.

Now I am aware people may disagree with my logic and will happily reverse position if someone has a better argument (that's the scientist in me, we don't get attached to defunct theories). I respect and welcome that.

Instead of debating my thesis, however, she has exclusively attacked me as a person (here and in comments on my original meta) with no regard for sticking to at least accusing my factually, and gotten the people on her threads to do the same (even people I'd began to consider friends), without even a chance for me to tell my side of the story, and with no regard for how badly she is perverting the point of my meta (with out-of-context quotes and plain lies), or the utter preposterous oddity of the latest accusations she has leveled.

And all this for a publicly accessible work and publicly accessible interactions.

How depressing.
