After reading his deranged dribble, all the pieces came together:
After numerous occasions of him spewing his toxic delusional leftism all over GitHub's internal Slack, he was finally shown the door.
The take away is that he had enough entryist comrades internally to put the pressure on GitHub until they finally cratered and had to backtrack.
Be warned: fire activist employees early, or don't hire them at all. They will only end up costing you in the end, and will make your corporate culture a toxic cesspool.
