It doesn’t quite work to “remind” people of a thing that isn’t true.
What he is being accused of are, basically, his literal actions, on-the-record. One might object to summaries like “manic” and “crazy” if they seem inappropriate, but in this case they are clearly appropriate and given all of the evidence, the burden of demonstration is on “here’s why this massive pile of obsession and harassment shouldn’t be considered crazy.”
(Or “here’s why these hundreds of fevered and pressured messages that often contain paranoia and catastrophizing and grandiosity, including mentions of e.g. working 17 hours a day, 7 days a week and routinely sleeping less than six hours a night, shouldn’t be considered mania, when that’s almost literally the diagnostic criteria for mania.”)
You’re acting as if Caleb deserves normal baseline kindness and charity, but he burned his way through that months ago, and burned through the extra above-and-beyond kindness and charity of several additional people in recent weeks. Nobody’s setting out to be mean, but there’s also no reason to bend over backwards to be nice (and the absence of bending over backwards isn’t rude or bad or in any way decriable).
This whole comment section is Caleb reaping what nobody forced him to sow.

(There are plenty more examples.)
