Talia, if this was all a misunderstanding from Jeff, then why was Timnit accusing Jeff for the longest possible time. I can understand Megan Kacholia was the main person in all this drama according to you, but the trolling/accusing that we saw in the aftermath was vicious and in poor taste. Honest bystanders who were giving neutral opinions were gaslighted to choose what side they morally belonged.
Why didn't any of you try to stop this verbal carnage? Also if Timnit was largely not at fault, why is that on every social media where any modicum of anonymity is possible, Timnit had been harshly criticized for her conduct.
We respect her contributions to advancement of ML, but that conduct was inexorable & in very poor taste.
