> Hoever, some Rust users are toxic when talking to people outside the community or to people who disagree.

I'm not even sure if this is the case. I have seen enough toxic Rust users, but at least in my experience they rarely overlap with who are active in the community. This suggests that they are experiencing typical newcomer syndrome, comparable to Haskell newcomers' urge to write a monad tutorial, and also explains that why a disproportional number of non-Rust users observe toxic Rust users---if you are a Rust user but don't preach about Rust everywhere, how can others tell if you are indeed a Rust user? :-)
