Abusers often don't know they are being an abuser.
Does that occur more happen than abusers who don't care if they are? I don't know anyone from LTT personally, but I don't necessarily get the feeling that Linus doesn't care. To your point, ignorance doesn't excuse abuse, but I think it's an important distinction to make regardless.
This is a valid point because I think it affects openness to change. Linus may be a dumbass in some regards, but I'd be willing to bet he's open to change.
