I think it's fair to call Go an anti-Perl.

Perl is very liberal. There's always more than one way to do things.

Go is very conservative, in comparison.

I'd agree that both are contrarian, but for very different reasons.

Then again, pretty much anything can fairly be called an anti-Perl, possibly even Perl.
