Perhaps OP is more concerned with how humans interact with each other than Chromium/Firefox's hegemony. Perhaps combating the hegemony is only worthwhile to OP if the incumbent treats its users with equal respect.
OP described that they researched the Iceweasel project before choosing it. I assume this means looking for things like a CoC, and watching how maintainers respond to users.
When you point out that every person at Mozilla may not behave the same way, it misses OP's point. He's not interacting with the Mozilla community - he's interacting with Debian's Iceweasel community.
I don't know if you're amoral or not - that's not a judgment I'm prepared to make. I caution you not to confuse the word "amoral" (not caring about the morality - as it sounds you may not) with "immoral" (not being moral yourself.) I'm not sure it was an attack on your character.
That said, a thread that begins "Fair enough. What browser are you using?" and then devolves into an attack as to whether it's dependencies support OP's views does not appear to be made in good faith.
