You lost me at “there’s a lot of object-hating going around.” Conversely there’s a return to being mindful of how we use the computer’s resources. Lately I’ve been reading about Ruby internals, and rather than be impressed I’m terrified by how staples such as classes are implemented.
Objects do not necessarily mean polymorphism and they certainly don't necessarily mean polymorphism via dynamic dispatch. For example, it's entirely possible to just use objects all within the stack. It's entirely possible to implement monomorphism via generics.
So yes, object-hate characterises the popular but tiresome anti OOP sentiments going around.
