I use Common Lisp for most of my development now that I am (mostly) retired, so I admit some bias. Given that: Common Lisp tooling is very good and there is an active community of users. I argue that Haskell is really a Lisp language, at least it seems so to me. Also, so many good Lisp-y things are in Ruby, Python, modern JavaScript, etc. I think language selection for a project is a process of making trade offs. I am happy that it is a free world to develop using whatever languages and tools we want. I try very hard to never judge anyone on their politics and I try to do the same in programming language wars.
