Communicating clearly that you cannot currently accept contributions from people potentially associated with problematic businesses is an understandable decision. Tone of voice stated following the removal of a list of names of people you used to work with not too long makes this sound like a petty statement if anything.

Long story short:
Torvalds: "I won't revert this change because I hate russians. I hate russians because we had a war in the past. We had a war because we supported hitler. How dare you ask me at all f--king paid trolls"
