As one said officials are often toxic, sadly.
I don’t know, maybe they release their anger about bugs and FC‘s sometimes weird creative decision making on other players.
Anyways, yes the purge can indeed destroy your base!
The game makes no difference between your base and the base of someone else.
He could place a coffer near by and call a lvl 10 purge, a lot of them will run for the coffer but depending on the AI some of them will go after your base. And as soon as they dealt with the defenseless coffer they will attack everything in range!
Some people just like to troll people i guess 
Edit: and to be clear the destroyers can deal damage to your buildings!
