In my experience, it's less that there's specific languages to avoid, and more that there's a general baseline of unpleasantness on the internet towards those folk. As a result, they tend to steer towards the islands where that doesn't occur.
There isn't a list of "These are the problem languages", it's an experience of "Oh, this community has a CoC that protects me and has a culture I'm OK with".
I am capable of making assumptions by myself, I fail to see how these assumptions are relevant in the real World, where I never observed them except for single cases that are everywhere and happen more or less with the same frequency.
I can't take an hypothetical as something that should convince me to use Rust because "some other community is worse in my fictional story"
I can say from my personal life that I have avoided or actively gone to stores based on similar perceptions, and tend to analyze the same information whenever joining a new online community.
"This thread came as my response to this post by CppCon. Nothing has changed. They invited a person convicted of possession of Child Sexual Abuse Imagery to a conference with a child care program. Where people are encouraged to bring their children. https://cppcon.org/2022dipost/"
(note that this is a much higher bar than any mere "cancellation", the person in question has a criminal conviction)

Every time without fail. It's all so tiresome.

What languages should they steer away from?
