If you have ever needed a little helper function in Java and wondered why you had to stick it in a static method in a class, I think you'll understand his point.
But that's a flaw in Java, not OOP, and it's not a consequence of Java being a pure OOP language (which it isn't).
If one wants to criticize OOP, the language to focus on should be Smalltalk.
