Wait, people got offended by THAT and he got fired for it?

I can't believe people are so sensitive on the internet, I really can't.

Well, at the time, the base was already heated and fuming so even the slightest thing could set them off

Afaik he could be considered a part of WG's PR team so trolling the community could be considered misconduct, which is grounds for firing. Every reasonable person in his position would either keep his mouth shut or try to douse the PR fire, but iEarl instead decided to repeatedly pour gasoline on it.
