Go is actually quite different from python in a lot of ways. Most of the stuff you hate about python does not apply to Go in any way. You can't really make a DSL in Go - there's no operator overloading, no meta classes... no classes at all. The performance of Go is an order of magnitude faster than python and only a few times slower than C. Dependency management and deployment are trivial - Go compiles to a standalone binary with no dependencies (except sometimes libc depending on what you're using).
So... Go is nothing like Python. When people say it is, what they mean is, Go tries to make its syntax really obvious, and make life pleasant for experienced developers writing software in the language.
