someone wanted to launch the hivemind against the bug reporter because he was not deferential enough.

The irony being that the victim is a member of Ember.js who is bullying the rest of open source on twitter while touting how they are saving Africa from a Portland coffee shop.

Not 'not deferential enough', bug reporter is a general asshat. Maintainer seemed well aware of that and replied in kind.

It doesn't matter that the people you are bullying are bullies themselves, that doesn't make your bullying in any way ok.
