> This is specifically targeting an individual front-end engineer at FB, which in my own estimation crosses the line from criticism of executives or general policy, to specifically trying to instigate public outrage against a co-worker.

More importantly, it sounds like he was bullying colleagues to force them to comply with his personal desires on how to do activism by proxy.

Worse, he was trying to force colleagues to risk losing their job in the process just so that they could cater to his whims.

"bullying" is definitely the word. And no one should be forced to take a political position, especially in a work context. There's a reason why our forbears left their politics at the workplace door.

Beyond that, I'd be nervous that a co-worker like this might advance to physical violence.
