I didn't say that. Imagine the great classical Greeks watching the dark ages take place. You could imagine their horror. Not bitter, just horrified. And with good reason.

Alan Kay has every right to be bitter. He's a great software architect, and came up with OOP as a perfectly reasonable policy for managing complexity. Now most people associate OOP with commercial garbage and that VisitorSingletonFactory nonsense.

If you came up with a set of really good ideas that were later bastardized and mutated into the sort of business horseshit that's destroying software, wouldn't you be pissed off?
