Ok, then call out those aspects. Don’t call the lead a stinky manager who wrote shitty code.

Criticize the project and methodology, not the person.

Management style and code quality outputs are not criticisms of the person, they are judgements of the person's management skills and coding skills. Are we not allowed to do that? Or do we just need to use nicer language when doing it? I could agree with nicer language, but those were actually very relevant facts that were missing in the original blog post about the rewrite.
