        It's a shame that you disapprove of media coverage of the current dysfunction of WMF & your lack of response to the English Wikipedia crisis. WMF is not a walled garden, you are supposed to have transparency. Plus, you embody the incivility we block other users for. WE care.

        This tweet wasn’t about disapproving of media coverage. I’ve said here and on-wiki that the coverage was fine about the issues, but I didn’t think the treatment of targets of harassment was well handled.

        This wasn’t even meant to be something that rose to the level of Wikidrama. Had I wanted to do that I would have taken it on directly. This was just garden variety the world is burning subtweeting.

        Congrats. After your tweet, other advanced bit editors resigned and there is a whole section of the Fram-gate devoted to the tone deaf tweets coming from the head of the WMF.

        Speaking as just one of the admin/crats/os volunteers who has recently resigned due to the WMF's actions in bypassing the community to ban someone for incivility, I find your incivility quite ironic.

        I hope you realize what you say has consequences. Many people actually do care about what was written. Your comment here just angered a lot of editors and administrators. The situation was already tense and your remark was fuel to the fire. I vote NO CONFIDENCE in the WMF!!!

        Wow that's nasty and totally inappropriate coming from the CEO. A lot of people - what some might call users, or editors, on Wikipedia - care very much. Way to dismiss them all.

        Wow. Just wow. And you're the head of the WMF?! Time to change the board and fire your contemptuous ass.
