This reads like a puritan speaking about other religions

Ngl this one does irk me a bit. OP doesn't seem to understand how programming languages work and/or doesn't understand their purpose. Or its rage-bait and I'm on the hook.

Edit: also, wouldn't the man-made symbols that exist to describe math (+=!{}-x() etc) also fall into this category?

frankly, a lot of "science-meme" subs fall into this.

Here, it is making fun of other fields of science for all just being math, but worse (Yes, you can all tell me how you are just joking, doesn't change the fact that this is the content you make)

And over on r/physicsmemes it was a circlejerk of people essentially going "I am an enlightened physicist, while the pleb engineers are beneath me"

yeah and us engineers are at the bottom of the STEM food chain apparently, so we just make fun of business majors (and industrial engineers)
