I suppose you could look at it that way, but only if Kyle was a

And this does illustrate the problems on this list. Kyle sets up a
mailing list, and invites people to join it. Suddenly Al starts accusing
him of all kinds of bad motives-- censorship, childish behavior, and the
like. It's not as if Al wasn't flogging his own set of community forums
a few years back.
Which sort of vindicates my comment about his "mean spirited rants."

Fear... no.
Derision... well, to my mind, it's childish. Like taking your ball
and getting the other last-picks for the game to go to another
playground with you because they wouldn't let you be pitcher. So,
when adults do it, they're certainly opening themselves to derision.
