@pratik I guess it doesn’t help much in this situation, but I’ve broadly taken the tack that I don’t get involved with conversations that have folks like your accuser in them— it just fuels the shit they’re trying to stir. I do think I read Manton more clearly saying, “not going to talk about it here” than maybe was stated in his “let’s cool off”. My take there was “this is not a conversation for public (or now)”. But not being directly involved lets me read and experience it differently and I get that.
