Why was this comment flagged? C++ haters... really?

- Yoric 4y agoAll the Rust programmers I know are really happy to discuss the limitations and shortcomings of the language. It's possible that the problem you're pointing at comes from the word "reddit" rather than "rust" :) Note: I've looked at the parent's comment history. The only one of them which was not a troll against Rust was a troll against the EU. I'll stop feeding the troll.

- School-Cotton 4y agoWe use rust full time at my job, and griping about the language’s rough edges is a common pastime. The fanboys are loud and obnoxious but I can assure you they don’t make up the whole rust community.
- zozbot234 4y agoRust has its rough edges, but what people do is gripe about those in language development spaces. Then the rough edges get filed down in the next release trains, or sometimes the next language edition. In C++ they are totally unfixable.
- fckgnad 4y agoIt doesn't deserve a flag, but the sunny optimism feels delusional. It's obvious that C++ has problems and there's obvious red flags like why someone like Linux Torvalds vehemently hates the entire language. The poster addresses none of this and has a overly positive attitude towards C++. There's obvious nuance on this topic that the post fails to address and he instead just preaches to a biased choir. At least he admits he's a beginner.
