> I wish people wouldn't talk about one or two people with a warped view as "the community".

At least in the quoted sections, they weren’t talking about the opinions of the rust community, but rather those of someone from the Rust community.

My point is that saying "Rust community" implies that this person represents the community in some way or worse, is representative of the community. Neither is true. It's just some random person with no credentials. That person is no more the Rust community than I am the HN community. Imagine how you'd feel if people made assumptions about you based on what nindalf said that one time.
