One big difference between the D community and other

which is good and which is why D is the way it is.
Or perhaps D simply has more flaws to criticize.

Perhaps you are depicting other communities as a bunch of
group-think hipsters because you are insecure about your own
community?
Look, I can make baseless accusations too. Wouldn't you agree
it would be nicer (and more effective, I imagine) to promote
your community by calling attention rather to its positive
qualities, rather than demonizing other communities? Especially
when your negative portrayals of other communities are not
accompanied by any evidence?
I'm sure you're a smart person and will for each of the
communities in question be able to find evidence of at least
one person who at some point in time acted in the way you
suggested. Of course such a thing would not prove that the
behaviour is representative of the community, so please don't.
any community dumb enough to buy merchandise with a programming
language's name on it is full of idiots.
bye.
