I don't think most people hate C++. They certainly didn't at my last job, especially with the awesome new additions to the language (which granted aren't any good if you can't use them, but we could). Still, I do think you're right that a significant number of people hate C++, so I think your point is still valid.

Most peoples' experience of C++ is from long before C++17 or even C++11 were usable. I'd agree that someone encountering modern C++ for the first time today, or willing to give it a second chance, might end up quite liking it, but if your first exposure was to an older code-base, that would put you off very easily.
