No, this is absolutely not meaningful. To deduce anything from this, you would have to assume that the two variables "opinion about systemd" and "likelihood to participate in flames about it" are statistically independent. In my experience this is not the case and it certainly is not an assumption you can "simply make". Moreover, you would need to not count posts, but unique posters, which will be a very hard to get, because in a lot of flames there are people who get one spam-address after the other, when they get blocked, which would further skew the numbers towards whichever camp has more disrespectfull trolls.
