The “anti” movement is a result of a shift in the industry. At this point it’s pretty clear to all people watching that rust is winning the long term game to become the “standard language”. It’s pretty natural for such a shift to make people have feelings.
That said, if you actually look at the things the critics are saying, most of them are from a place of misunderstandings. Every time there is some Rust drama, tech influencers like primagen are doing back bends to be “fair”, even if it means given reasonable doubt to an unreasonable position, lest they turn off audience members who are too emotionally invested in seeing Rust be bad because it validates their choices.

There is no 'standard language', never has been and never will be (otherwise we'd all be programming in Java or Javascript, which during their heydays were 'obviously' becoming the 'future standard programming language').
