Do... do you think he realizes that Debian is "woke"?
Also I wonder what his beef with Rust is? Is Rust woke?
I've seen this before. There is a special type of person out there who feels emasculated (yeah it's always men, isn't it) by the idea of a language statically enforcing memory-safety. Because, you know, real men write C or C++ with no safety rope and no seatbelt, juggling with raw pointers and chainsaws with their bare hands. They think that the only reason why C/C++ has produced an infinite abundance of bugs and security holes is because other programmers just suck. But they are different, they can handle it, they are very clever after all. And they won't let some wusses take away their powers with all these ideas of memory safety by design.
Rust is the tr*ns language with programmer socks, you see
