Thanks for writing this, Jeff! I was very cheered to see a gentle but firm defense of SO's mission -- and of the users who make it happen -- this morning. Doubly so given [the latest nonsense-bomb that SO corp decided to drop][0] on those users this week.

Quick summary of that Medium post for everyone - Some unknown people accused a SE site of... something on Twitter. People got mad about it. A SE employee weighed in in support of the tweeter. Some other people claim the accusation of whatever it is is nonsense. And I don't have the slightest idea what happened or whose side to take.

  > And I don't have the slightest idea what happened or whose side to take Unfortunately most of those involved are at least a little bit right, and I'm not sure that we SE users who are upset have concerns that make any sense out of context. :) They don't have anything directly to do with the original tweet. I probably shouldn't even have linked the article.
