In my opinion, this guy doesn't understand what he's talking about and substitutes his experiences of bad OO for OO in general.

One could make a similar argument against any language, simply by pointing out all the ways people screw it up.

I see this a lot in language religion wars. In fact, languages are just tools. Some tools are better for certain things than others. A lot of coders never understand that.
