Not the parent, but I've read many comments here on HN from users who feel that if a language doesn't include an HTTP server in the standard library, it's not ready for production work. Ridiculous, of course, but that may be what the parent is referring to.

JavaEE sure does.

Java SE also does include one since Java 6, but people don't read documentation it seems.

There's a funny story here about how Rails had to keep some patches around because Heroku users were accidentally using WEBrick in production because of defaults...
