I read your original post and I’m still not sure what them being a developer has to do with anything. Their comments are clearly breaking lemmys rules, why don’t you just report them and block the user? All sorts of people will have all sorts of views that are offensive to you, and the majority of other people - but if their views don’t impact their work, that’s their prerogative.
To be honest, I don't know how this can be considered troll or spam. Further, I was banned one day after the post, note that two admins had already commented on the thread.
