"just telling you what their decision already is"
That's not the only thing that they did. As the Russian saying goes, 'if you said A, say B'. I'd have no problem with the message 'We are resigning because we had a conflict with a certain team and it didn't get resolved in our way', but they have said more, just enough to make a public accusation without any chance for the accused party to refute it.
- danShumway 5y agoThe accused party can say anything they want, including airing out the relevant grievances in a more public way if they want to. Giving someone the option of privacy is not the same as denying them justice. Quite the opposite, it's a mature way of allowing the org (and whichever people are involved in the incident in particular) to choose how public they want to be, and to choose how they want to respond. But that's the extent of what they would owe, the mod team doesn't owe arbitrary people in the public an explanation that's detailed enough for them to form a hot-take immediately within the space of a few hours.
