I don’t think you have a point. You’re shaming people in a community who don’t give a fuck about your concern trolling. Calling out shitty organizations for shitty behavior in the loudest way possible is often the only way to enact change. There’s a distinct power imbalance between companies that have money and resources versus individuals in the open source community. Polite and firm are useless unless you have additional leverage.

Enjoy being rude on github then 🤷 I'm sure your reasons for being mean are justified and help the image of the opensource community 👍

Clinging to absolute morality leads nowhere. You shouldn't punch down.
