I posted a reply, but it was automatically marked as spam, likely due to the newness of my account.
My reply copied a screenshot of Emile Torres, whose claims of having received harassment and threats of violence you said you had found “plausible”, falsely accusing me of “stalking, harassing, lying about, impersonating, and threatening [them] with physical violence”.
I don’t think @titotal was specifically commenting on any allegation that you harassed Torres. It’s almost impossible for third parties to rule the more general allegations against unnamed anonymous persons in or out.
I was referring to the account that told torres to be careful or “someone will break your kneeecaps”, the person obsessively tweeting attacks, the people impersonating Torres, tagging his ex-wife, etc. I can’t rule out Torres faking some of this, but I think it’s more plausible that the attacks are by real people who dislike Torres.
I would guess you are not behind those, and that Torres is wrongly attributing them to you (they seem different in character to the post here). However since you seem to be a pseudonymous/throwaway account person who has only ever discussed this one topic, I have no way to be sure.
I am fairly annoyed at the lack of good faith being given here, given the subject matter.
The point I was trying to make is that you probably would not take their claims as seriously as you seem to be, if you had properly assimilated the fact that these claims are being made by the same person who falsely accused someone of “stalking, harassing, lying about, impersonating, and threatening [them] with physical violence”.
You then say that you “have no way to be sure” if those accusations are indeed false because I am writing pseudonymously. Why do you say this? What does my pseudonymity have to do with my credibility in this context? The reason you should believe me is that if those accusations were true, and Torres knew this to be the case, they would be in a position to share this evidence publicly. But they haven’t done so, because they do not have this evidence.
I didn’t see a message about kneecaps, or those other things you mentioned. Could you clarify? However, given Torres’ history of wanton dishonesty ― I mean, prior to reading this article I had already seen Torres lying about EA ― and their history of posting under multiple accounts to the same platform (including sock puppets), if I see an account harassing Torres like that, I would (1) report the offensive remark and (2) wonder if Torres themself controls that account.
