It's not a nirvana fallacy, it's a statement about your disregard for basic human decency and respect - the relationship between the way you treat people in everyday and your ideals is secondary to the fact that you're just plain being a dick here. Other people made the same point as you about hip hop without sinking to the level of, say, posting lyrics in support of hip hop from a band that is not a hip hop band, and being an asshole about it when someone took the perfectly legitiate step of pointing this out. I agree that principles shouldn't be subordinated to courtesy when the shit hits the fan, but let's face it, this has just turned into you throwing your goddamn weight around for the hell of it.
