Specific Troll Attack on my Post:

These *new* accounts popped-up, then they all responded to my article with strawmen misrepresenting my argument... *after* they had blocked me from *SEEING* their posts and account!

Each of these characters wrote a post asking for a response... *after* they intentionally HID their posts from my account. Think about that - they wanted their questions to go unseen, unanswered. They wanted their criticisms to go without rebuttal from me. These are the specific accounts involved, likely the same person or a clique among the "Rationalist" community who I criticized in the essay:

- David Blodgett

- Joshua Newkirk

- Jim Sanders

- Steven Rowland

That's FOUR different folks who ALL *blocked* my account PRIOR to posting their questions, so that they guaranteed I would not see their responses. That is a COORDINATED troll-attack. Notice, also, that those same characters are saying "Medium shouldn't LET people post things like THIS" - as if Medium should be a dictatorship to appeases their assumptions! These characters are malicious actors, abusing the details of Medium's blocking-protocol. I do NOT want them to unblock me - I have no interest in talking to a coordinated troll attack. AND - the fact that they all did so is proof of their concerted efforts.
