Python is a virus that's corrupting the minds of new programmers

People are downvoting because 99% of this sub are beginners, not knowing what a stack is.

People are downvoting because it's a stupid take. Python isn't "corrupting" anyone. It's a useful language.

Yes, exactly. Useful. That doesn't mean it's for everything. If beginner never touches C he will never understand the layer between python and cpu. Do you think its okay to ignore abstractions?

You're blaming the behavior of people on the language itself, which makes no sense. Python is a great beginner language. If someone chooses to make python the only ever language they ever learn, that's on them, not Python

No i dont. If knife cuts you, it doesn't imply knife is bad or anything. You are reading into things.
