Calling a bunch of people 'dickriders' is just as toxic as the Linus-message. Do what you want, but you are not an inch better than Linus.
But yes, the mail is toxic and unacceptable.
This has some real "don't be intolerant towards the intolerant" energy.
Yes, sometimes insults are justified. No, when an employee/volunteer helper doesn't share your view is not one of those times. Yes, when you're confronted with a toxic fuck and those defending his toxic behavior is one of those times.
Exactly.
There's a hell of a difference between calling random commenters "dickriders" and having your boss, whom you have a very unequal relationship with, berate you like this.
