But they are not, neither is China and I only see blatant approved racism on
the western side.

In an ideal world the USA would not be a hegemon that invades, bombs
and overthrows foreign governments, threatens the security of other nuclear
powers, expands its hostile alliance and sanctions half of the world.
Anyway you fail to understand that is not the topic. The rage comes
from LF actions
and Linus words. All they had to do was to say: Thank you people for
your contribution
but we have no other choice, this is the law.
But they did quite the opposite and Linus showed his true ugly
white western supremacy face for all to see.
That is the cause of the rage.
The real danger is the split in the open source community and the
"software Iron Curtain" erected by the USA.
