It is important to be able to call people out on their incompetence. Now more than ever. Bad people often hide behind incompetence in order to avoid blame for their actions, and it works.

Calling out incompetence and being a fucking dick are not the same thing, and the fact that people (you included) think that you can't point out mistakes without being a cunt is the entire problem here

Yeah but you just called everyone in the comments who defends him a "neckbeard"

Yes, good job, me shooting my mouth off at Linus stans is exactly the same as Linus publicly humiliating people in what is essentially a professional setting, and therefore me calling people neckbeards invalidates everything I said.

I swear it's like nothing has changed about Linux users in 30 years.

Kinda invalidates your point, yeah.

How can I take you seriously if you're over here doing the same thing as him?

You can always say "hey, your code has so and so issues, therefore, I won't approve this PR. Please fix and resubmit. Also, please make sure you don't submit your code late. Thanks", instead of insulting the person.
