Based on previous discussions, she bullied facebook's AI chief, Yann LeCun, who is apparently a respected expert in the field, off of twitter in an attempted cancellation.

Lecun's last post on twitter was telling people not to attack her, so I'm not sure that characterization holds.

Lecun is way more an adult and professional than she is. I dont expect anything other response from Lecun. Now, lets turn the tables, have you ever seen a response like that from the person in question here?
