It seems like he was rude to email you specifically when you told him not to, but the rest is just standard CEO behaviour.
It seems like he had answers/responses to a lot of what you said so I'm still kind of with him (though guardedly). Mainly due to lack of a better option; I do think paid search is the way forward.
Probably what he should have done is a response blog-post that we could have also discussed publically, and at our own leisure.
Reading your article I get why he would have got defensive (regardless of if he's covering his ass or has genuine counter-arguments).
are you aware that David isn’t Lori?
The post desc is in the first person. People use different usernames for things too.
Does it change the validity of what I said?
yeah so just to be clear: you missed that the title of this thread is barely modified from a dril quote and spent so little time reading the linked article that you missed it wasn’t written by David Gerard?
your original post was just barely not bannable because “CEOs are just like this” is a shitty but valid take. now it’s obvious you didn’t put even a minimal amount of effort into your post.
aaaahem Pixelated Duck quote

admittedly, no: it's still all just as unhinged ridiculous invalid derpery as it was before you missed the simple rhetorical device of post title phrasing including "we"
no, it continues to fail the pointless dipshit bar we apply locally
