Yup. The actual issues with the design patterns come from a) most problems not mapping well to OOP, and b) patterns that exist only to compensate for low expressiveness of a language (e.g. all the patterns that compensate for not having proper closures).

I agree with point B, but A is objectively wrong, borderline trolling.

You can successfully apply OOP and OOP design-patterns to a lot of problems and come up with equally functional solutions as you would with FP.

And for certain domains, better.
