The GPL and the Urheberrecht both forbid to publish modified versions that
harm the reputation of the Author.
There is nothing like that in the GPL. It only forbids misrepresentation
of the Author's work.
You seem to missinterpret the GPL.
/*--------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
GPL:
If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
authors' reputations.
/*--------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
A common misconception is to disregard that the GPL does _not_ void the
Urheberrecht (http://bundesrecht.juris.de/urhg/index.html). Anything that
is permitten in the GPL is permitten only in a Urheberrecht context.
Urheberrecht allows the Author to forbid publishing of a work if this is made
in a way that harms the reputation of the author.

You seem to be really frustrated about the fork.
Please stop spreading your superficial knowledge about legal things.
You've proven, that you are far away to have the legal expertise to
judge whether all other opinions beside yours are wrong.
To think that only your opinion is the only correct one in the world is
ridiculous. You might have your opinion (even if it's absolutely
minority), but others too.
I'm fed up reading that everybody except you is competent enough to
understand the GPL. That's not the right way to convince somebody.
And if you use terms, please translate them into english, that everybody
understands them, so don't use "Urheberrecht" but the english term
"Intellectual property rights".
