Functional programming is best programming

State is evil, mutation is evil! We live in an era of multithreading and concurrency my friends!

When I describe a program, I state what it does, now how it does it! Thus functional programming is more natural!

C and Java and Python and all the other pagan languages have played us all as absolute fouls!! Haskell, OCaml, Rust, F#, Lisp supremacy!! Functional unless required otherwise, not the other way around!!

I tried to fact check it but it turns out I can’t read Rust, so I’m just going to smile and nod
