It's very common to see people with toxic attitudes in and around the Rust community, even in their internal communication about how to use Rust (`actix-web`, anyone?). I don't think it's helpful to lie to yourself about the Rust community like this.
The only thing Rust users who don't want to have these conversations can do is to openly recognize and talk about the extreme fanaticism Rust users commonly display and the toxic pattern of communication that sometimes is bundled or separate, when it comes to priorities in software dev.
