I already seen this with Zig. And even without language communities. Look at this whole thread. Look in to the mirror. Regularly when Rust is mentioned on HN. Anti-Rust cult comes to complain that there is Rust.

Even if someone just posts "I have made this with Rust" - then this cult comes and complains "why do you need to mention Rust?!". Like look at your self. Who hurt you?
