What I find toxic is the claim of zealotry when I can't see any, not on HN anyway.
So I called the poster out to show proof. So far there's none, except one Twitter post (because we all know that's the best technical discussion forum on the planet, clearly) which does not surprise me at all.
So they are the ones who get triggered by something that does not exist.
That is what is toxic.
If you go around claiming fantasies and people call you out then that falls more under curiosity and discussion. Not toxicity.
I wouldn't go so far as to say toxic in this case, but their reaction to me having a differing opinion is certainly characteristic of rust developer pathology. Not sure why rust attracts these people. This phenomenon should probably be studied.
I don't ever recall saying I'm being repressed. Could you point out where I said that?
If you're referring to my above post, I'm pointing out that you're having a very emotional reaction to what I'm saying. That's typically what I see from rust developers.
