For some reason, a subset of Rails community feels compelled to boost it by knocking whatever is more popular, e.g. Java in the old days, JavaScript these days. Rails is fine, but that aspect of the community is unnecessary and immature.

It's not fair characterize a whole community by the actions of individuals; it's just throwing around more mud.

Aside from the root comment, there is no evidence here to support the broad strokes you're making.

I specified subset, and it's from my experiences over the years.
