I’d be curious what your exposure to the Rust community has been and where?
Within the Rust reddit or forums, they specifically dissuade blind evangelism and there are often posts critical about the language that get quite a lot of traction.
Outside the main rust community, there are definitely zealots but they are usually not accepted by the larger community, and are usually called out.
I’m not saying it’s perfect, nor that there aren’t zealots who go overboard. However it’s probably one of the least toxic of the programming communities I frequent (swift, c++, Python, c# , go etc)
