SUBSTACK SUPPORT! THIS MUST BE STOPPED!

Freedom of speech should not open the door to cyber-bullies.

I refer you to this account: https://substack.com/profile/32104763-rich-reading-sick-money

Despite trying humour, patience and even ignoring him, this vicious stalker has character assassinated me, attempted to discredit me publicly and has now become a cyber pest.

I am not even sure when this campaign of his actually began. I remember becoming aware of him about a month ago when Sage Hana totally lost her cool with him and went for his virtual jugular. I had not seen how that started but was shocked when I saw this same person attacking a lovely lady called Elizabeth who has since lost her ability to access her account. Then he wrote disparagingly about Max Igan and took umbrage with me for pointing out that some of his assumptions were way off base and quite insensitive.

After that I noticed him cyber-stalking me. If I commented anywhere he would be there sniping, sneering and being obnoxious. This began to be irksome and I had the feeling that he was desperate to engage me but why?

Did he want my attention?
Was he a bored troll?
Was he a misogynist?
Was he an agent provocateur?

The harassment became overwhelming as he chased me from post to post all over Substack. Wherever I went he would be there…… trying to trip me up. Suggesting that I am AN INFILTRATOR IN PROTEST MOVEMENTS, acting a part, am American, am a pig and twice he called me moronic. He seems to think I am the person (a good friend of mine) who writes on Twitter under the name Dippy Dappy Duck. He focuses on my age, which he gets wrong deliberately. He trawls my posts on Steemit and Hive blog. Which is quite a slog because I have written over a 1,000 articles there.

I tried humour and said “You fancy me, don’t you?” but this guy has no sense of humour. He entered into full “gotcha” mode and soon he was producing screen shots of our exchanges BUT he had excluded the multitude of goading comments which caused me to start taking the piss out of him with blue humour. I tried to block him by triggering a 100 year ban on my account. I tried FOUR times but it failed to work.

THEN HE WROTE A POST ABOUT ME:

The Saga continues

THEN HE WROTE ANOTHER:

Sometimes one needs to keep things for posterity

THEN HE SCREENSHOT ONE OF MY CONVERSATIONS AND PRODUCED THIS STRANGE MESS OF A POST PICKING ON A NEW SUBSCRIBER MARY-ANN:

If it waddles like a duck, quacks like a duck

AND TODAY HE HAS GONE FULLY OVER THE TOP:

"Find me a controlled opposition operative who IS NOT a great actor..... no such animal exists" - source Frances Leader

He clearly still has access to my account despite Substack Support promising me that he is banned. He has uploaded a photo of me WITHOUT PERMISSION which I used yesterday in a post.

He has found a London actress who he believes looks like me (she does not) and he uses this slim evidence to continue with his character assassination.

I have emailed Substack Support FIVE TIMES about this harassment and stalking.

This post will be sent to them too.

Why am I telling you all about this?

Because Sage Hana, Elizabeth, myself, Mary-Ann have one thing in common. We are all female writers on Substack and we have been GOADED and harassed until we blew.

Apparently Hana called him a see-you-next-tuesday 30 times….
I am not at all surprised.

Substack was a safe place for freedom of speech when I first began writing here in January 2022 but this guy is s-t-r-e-t-c-h-i-n-g the limits.
Freedom of speech should not open the door to cyber-bullies.

THIS HAS TO BE STOPPED.
