Yes because if he were at any company, he’d have been fired. Decades ago.

Just because it’s not an official “work environment” per your definition does not mean it isn’t hostile or intolerable were it actually one.

But actually countering that point is a lot harder, isn’t it?

Ok, it's intolerable for you how he communicates on the Linux Kernel Mailing List. Are you anyway subscribed to the LKML? Are you kernel developer? Are you developer anyway? Who you are that you want to tell a community how they have to communicate? Why your opinion should matter for this community?

That's a pretty intolerable outright hostile and exclusive judgement :(

And then there would be no Linux kernel. So much for companies.

It feels hostile and intolerable to you.

There are many people who find the risk-averse non-confrontational corpspeak intolerable.
