No, I disagree with you here - it isn't one user and certainly not an abuser. This is reputationally damaging, and doubling down is not helping. Arguably, the doubling down is the most damaging part.
An absence of open expression of disapproval is not the same as approval - people may just be avoiding dogpiling a member of our community.
I would add that people have a right to express disagreement or disappointment in a respectful manner in accordance with the rules of this moderated private space, and we have not had moderation/interventions suggesting otherwise. The criticisms are reasonable, to my mind at least, and probably ought to be taken as a massive hint that something is wrong. We are less than a day in, and it's not too late to fix things.
I am trying not to be too critical, as I have enjoyed previous content from this channel and I wish the poster well for the future.
