Rust Evangelism 

The practice where Rust developers (aka evangelists) and cult followers harass other developers, code maintainers, and open source communities in order to get them to submit to the borrow checker and rewrite everything in Rust. They're known to cite Stackoverflow surveys that Rust is so loved, and that memory safety is free in Rust.
You know, Rust Evangelists proposed that Linux be rewritten in Rust.
Man, the amount of Rust Evangelism on Hacker News is just insane.
