You're right.  This whole thing has absolutely nothing to do with the
GPL.  The entire issue has to do with your approach towards solving
problems.

An approach which has shown that it just plain does not get the
results that you, we, or anyone in the community benefits from.

You wrote the initial mail in PUBLIC rather than in PRIVATE,
and you did not get the result you wanted.

If you won't accept that Marcus made a mistake, why should anyone
assume that you didn't made a mistake with your public posting?

You purposely attacked Marcus in public, for some strange reason.
You did not do it to defend your license, because a private mail
would have fixed the problem and you would have basically had
your name attached in a nice way for the fact that Marcus had looked
at your code.

Instead, now, another Open Source developer has quit.

You're no big man.  You're main characteristic is 'bully'.
