Many very smart people built amazing products in Java (Google, Amazon, Ebay). Calling them drones makes you sound like an amateur.

You're right. I didn't mean to imply everyone who uses Java was a drone, but there is a class of Java users who are heavily dependent on frameworks and couldn't code anything from scratch.

I myself have written in Java for one of the companies on your list.

He's not saying everyone who uses Java is a drone. He's saying most Indians (and Americans) are Java drones.
