I already said : I am none of those labels. I didn't minimize my mistakes. I explained the difference between the facts, your interpretations, and my intentions. That doesn't erase what I did, and I take responsibility for my actions. But I also want to add some nuance to the labels and judgments being made about me. And I didn't take so long to respond because I “had no balls.” I needed time. Time to understand what was happening to me and why. Time to accept what I did wrong, and to talk to people who could explain things to me, understand me, and advise me. I can't go back. What's done is done. I can only take responsibility, learn, and do better. But I can't accept false claims and harsh labels being used to define who I am as a person.
