I certainly agree that Modern C++ is vastly bett... actually this is just someone posting an old polemic and trying to stir resentment/controversy. IGNORE THIS CRITICSM OF C++... there are much better and more relevant ones which are worth taking seriously. This is not worth taking seriously.
(I wonder how many of these posters are real or fake. Given the karma and post of this poster I'm inclined to... wait. Last comment was in 2017. Yet... hasn't too many posts since that, I think it's about 4. Probably a bit out of the loop, buy maybe not malicious.)
[...] Please don't post insinuations about astroturfing, shilling, brigading, foreign agents and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. [...]
Insinuations of astroturfing or shillage are the commonest toxic internet trope around, and we don't allow them here without evidence. People feeling differently about C++ doesn't count as evidence of anything other than that programmers feel differently and identify with different things.
