This the functional equivalent of a self-pitying LiveJournal post by a moody teen that's been called out by his friends for being a bit of a dick.
Marcan wants to use social brigading to get his way, Marcan wants the entire Linux kernel dev flow to bend for him, and, when none of his poorly presented demands get him what he wants, he is - of course - the victim here.
Asahi is neat, but it clearly isn't a working daily driver yet, and it's not abusive to make feature requests and bug reports. Discussions around Rust in the kernel are not, and can never be, an 'injustice'. In Marcan's world, everything other than vehement agreement and immediate compliance is abusive, hostile, toxic, etc. But of course, the only toxic person here is the one threatening to wield the mob to get his way.
Honestly, I'd query whether the benefit is worth the cost. I'll take average code from well-adjusted anons over clever code from bullying, hyper-online micro-influencers any day of the week.
