This is a nonsensical comparison
It's not a comparison, it's an analogy. Important distinction.
Except it's not a distinction at all.
Of course it is. A square is also a rectangle but it's still an important distinction.
It's a rotten analogy. Comparing Linus having a go at some volunteers is not analogous, or comparable to a father abusing kids.
The analogy is that the end result doesn't justify the behaviour from the person in power. It's apt.
