The only time I've ever seen anything that could be considered Rust evangelist is when someone with a chip on their shoulder shoves a github issue or random comment link in my face. I certainly don't encounter them in the wild.

You're right - Rust has never had tech evangelists, absolutely never

In fact it's the only technology known to humans to never have had any such thing.

Puhleease.

I'm not saying they don't exist. I'm saying that I don't encounter them in the wild. Certainly nowhere near as often as I encounter people who have a loud and obnoxious dislike of Rust.

What I'm trying to say is that if you see Rust evangelists everywhere, your label is either so wide-ranging as to be useless or you need to rm your rust_evangelist_evidence.txt because it's likely taking up a disproportionate amount of headspace.

No.

Your claim was clear - only people anti Rust show up in your mentions - and your own logic points out that that's because of your attitude wrt Rust.

Nothing else justifies (not that your position is justified) jumping in as a cheerleader for the other poster

You're backtracking now because you've realised the folly of your claim, and how disingenous it was for you to make the claim.

I'm confused. Where do you think I'm backtracking?
