Gitlab is well within the right to ban rude remarks on their platform, but that isn't the same as regulating the open source community as a whole, which they have neither the right nor ability to do.

They have the right to regulate any activity taking place on any forum or digital property they control.

Obviously. The matter I am concerned with is the attitude that anybody is empowered to regulate the 'open source culture', which is worlds apart from regulating one particular forum.
