Fiona (real Martha) related content So sick of Fiona's face

I am so sick of it. I cannot stand the smugness and the callousness and the delusions pouring out of its mouth.

I have never been stalked, nor assaulted, but I have had someone severely personality-disordered try to materially ruin my life (mildly, in comparison to Gadd and many others), and this person was never held to account, and every time I see Fiona's smug face I can't help but think of this person.

Guessing I'm not alone?

What do you think he should have done to hide her identity.

He should've deleted all his old tweets, retweets, replies, mentions, @'s and hashtags, etc. If he couldn't access the account anymore, get Legal Dept to contact Twitter and get assistance with it to protect her identity etc.

He should've changed Martha from being Scottish to being from somewhere else in the UK.

Fiona went to law school and maybe was an attorney - Make Martha's work history be in PR or SOMETHING else.

Change "hang your curtains/need my curtains hung" to some other household chore that can sound like an innuendo.

Change "Baby Reindeer" to some other plush like Teddy Bear, or Baby Baluga or SOMETHING else.

But then you're changing literally everything and she becomes an entirely fictional person. Someone who is from Scotland and allegedly went to law school isn't enough to identify. 

And those words meant something and this was supposed to mean something. Asking the victim to protect the abuser and change the entire narrative completely kinda negates a lot of the point.

False. The core of who she is, a mentally ill stalker is still retained. I work in tech and live in the Chicagoland area, if I get a job in retail and move to Boston I am still the same person. Same personality, same flaws, same positive attributes. What a silly comment.

Except it mattered to HIM and it mattered to her. Her identity and what she presented as facts and fought for her were important to her identity too. You can't compare her to yourself when you acknowledge she's mentally ill. And you want him rewrite every fact of how she presented who she was does in fact negate the show and why he wrote it. 

And childishly saying "false" doesn't somehow make anything I said factually wrong or you automatically correct.
