I would argue that racism comes from ignorance and insecurity. A lot of frustration with PHP comes from using it a lot (not ignorant) and not enjoying it. They want to be better programmers than they language would allow. Granted, PHP has improved a lot since I last used it (2004). I think a lot of the arguments were true, but are no longer valid.

And juvenile programming language tribalism. You could compile hundreds of pages of ranting about any language and their ecosystem if you wanted to. Some people need to learn that just because you prefer one thing over the other it doesn't mean all the other things suck. I also suspect a lot of the people complaining about X language/platform/ecosystem are not even using them in production environments judging by their very idealized view on building software.
