The parent poster was stating that OpenBSD also has a strongly opinionated leader at the top (Theo de Raadt) who has been known to rant and rave like the best, yet unlike the Linux community the OpenBSD community as a whole does not behave like that and ships functioning code quickly and efficiently.

The Linux community is mostly just like the BSD community. It's just larger so there are numerically more assholes because the proportion is constant.
