Claiming a language is bad such click-bait. Even when it is valid, it basically will get a lot of attention from haters and fanboys. It's not a title that leads to interesting discussion.

The body of the post is similar in tone:

"Ah, whitespace. Another reason why Python is garbage. In a sane language scope delimiting is done with curly braces, or BEGIN and END keywords, or something similar."

Is tabs vs braces (vs spaces) relevant with current IDEs and linters which format code perfectly?
In short, No. Maybe when people had the same fight over vim/emacs back in the day.
so is this satire?
