Why is it that people's reaction to #Rust is either cult-level positive or Ted Cruz-level disgust?

I don't think I've heard more than a single person basically say, "Yeah, Rust is ok, but I like X better because Y." ;)

@RL_Dane Rust looks cool and has great features for secure memory usage by design, but I didn’t feel comfortable when I tried it. I prefer Python.

@Deuchnord

I think the paradigm is pretty distant from Python and more traditional languages. I think someone comfortable with #Haskell may be more comfortable with #Rust, but I've already said more than I know ;)

@RL_Dane @Deuchnord Rust is okay, but but I like Haskell because it is more high-level :ablobdrum:
