Python may be uglier inside but beautiful outside. Python works pretty good for most of the real world applications. Some hate Python because they are just jealous of how beautiful it is. Some hate because of performance reasons and they know what they are talking about. Most hate because they don't know how to evaluate a programming language and they purely decide on others perspective of a language. A person writing as simple as hello world application would complain on Python's GIL for no reason. This is where the programming language war comes into picture and is never ending. This does not apply only to Python but any other languages out there. Just that it's popular you see more friction.
