I have no idea what you are referring to. Since your action against me
on this list, nobody has complained about my posts to other lists. I
refute that I have "continued to post in this manner elsewhere"
particularly as you have never pointed to any email of mine, but have
preferred to make dark public implications of me being a bad person,
without providing evidence of the bad things I have done.

This is based on no evidence. This would be a rationale for executing
prisoners, as it is demonstrated to stop them from committing future
imagined crimes.

Yes I understand something of your viewpoint, based on your recent
post about me on Wikimedia-l saying "You're not on en:wp, so are not
part of the "us" in
question".<http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikimedia-l/2014-July/073239.html>
A bit surprising considering I have a GA review on the go.

Your analysis is not based on any evidence of things that I have
written here that would be against policy.

On most Wikimedia projects, this would be a reason to re-examine
sanctions. Wikipedia has the "standard offer" and a presumption of
reform;
it would be nice to see this positive way of thinking apply here,
rather than repeated enforcement of stereotypes.
