They also falsely assume that bad OOP practices in the industry == OOP as a whole, full stop. Arguments against OOP tend to be strawmen arguments. I mean, sure, Java taught bad OOP to millions of developers in the 90s, early 00s, and even today. Sure, the legacy of bad OOP lives on today. That doesn't say anything about the principles of OOP when applied properly, when done in languages that avoid the pitfalls of bad OOP, and when the developer avoids the very patterns that tend to fall into criticism.
