It's interesting how someone can get so emotional about a language. But I think it's really scary how normalized it is to casually put out conspiracy theories without anything to back this up. 

It would be totaly fine to say that you think rust should not be integrated into the linux kernel and rust programmers are not smart enough to get that.
But it's absolutely not okay to theorize that they plan an evil plot to destroy linux or to gain total control to achive some kind of political goal without presenting any kind of evidence. 

Fun fact: Rust is called after the rust fungus. A parasite.

@DotNetDemon83

I just love it when people make a programming language their personal identity said no one ever

@axeman2638

This is the conclusion I have come to also.

@BrandonDyer64

13:45 Any Rust dev that’s told you it’s easier than C is crazy. C is easy. C is the default, and it’s a great starting place for new programmers and in college. Rust, on the other hand, was one of the most challenging languages I’ve ever learned. Too many weeks of bashing my head against the wall until just the borrow checker finally clicked.

@Dionysus-Reality

You've hit the nail on the head it is the gramscian ideal of "March Through The Institutions". If the language is becomes very difficult it will be filled with people who are ideologically motivated towards very particularly ideals as opposed to being focused on open source software.

@SaidMetiche-qy9hb

As a C programmer for 9 years now, I agree with you, don't like these people who talk too much

@tikabass

The most tedious (aka difficult) part of kernel programming is not the language, by far.  And it's not for everyone, even those with a college degree.

@lottery248

no wonder why it's called "rust".

@MarcoAurelio-sv2tk

Even the government recommended it. This should be already a huge red flag.

@CrucialFlowResearch

Greetings from North Carolina also. I think what you mean is that Rust in the context of Linux development is a trojan horse, the video title could be more specific.

@vampire_kiril

why would you use a programming language or engine by some insane people that can BAN you from technical service and help?

@rebus_x5313

One becomes a lunatic just by learning rust syntax.

@k98killer

Those who would give up essential liberty for a bit of memory safety deserve neither safety nor liberty.

@philosophyze

Great points! I started worrying about your objections as I've started learning Rust and their community governance. That whole kerfufle over the Rust brand was a warning siren. 

I have a very based developer friend who is doing some paradigm shifting software architecture with Rust but neither of us are involved with the community and you provide good reasons to stay that way.

I hadn't thought of the community culture part of integrating Rust into the Linux kernal but you're obviously right. Anything with a "Code of Conduct" on something "free" is a problem. But my question is more whether this Hegelian/Marxist bent is inherent in all "Open Source" software?

@notuxnobux

There is a kernel developer that live streams his work. He had done it for years and then in one live stream he mentioned that he didn't like that rust is used in the kernel for some of the reasons you mentioned (technical reasons) and a few days later he got swatted while live streaming. They are activists as you say.

@sa3270

Such a shame when things get corrupted by woke ideologies.

@swedishpsychopath8795

This happened at work when they allowed Kotlin to be used alongside Java. Kotlin is an alternate Java syntax since it is based on running in a JVM.  Now EVERY programmer must master both Java and the Kotlin dialect and everybody is worse off. But the Kotlin people are smiling from ear-to-ear from some reason.

@notuxnobux

One funny thing about that is that communists love rust when rust is one of the few languages with private ownership of resources

@stuff26422

Just discovered this channel. At only half of the video I can safely say that this is my new favorite channel on YouTube. Awesome dude.

@Tall_Order

This also goes into the communist idea that everything old must go. Just because it's old. Doesn't matter if it's something we rely on, that has done a great job or not. It's old, so it must be replaced by OUR version.
