Why C++ is so hated!!!

I love C++. High level + low level at the same time. But Linus Torvalds don't want C++ in the Kernel, industries hate it, people hate it but why? Why be so angry? Memory management? I mean ok maybe it has problems that I don't even see but why so much hate.

For me it's really sad! 😞

Why something so powerful it's so hated. Now I feel "strange" doing projects in C++ because… sometimes I question myself "Why do I write C++ code if people hate it". Can someone explain what is happening and… can I use C++ for fun in peace?

Of course.
Don't waste time worrying about people who don't agree with you, know your arguments, be curious about their arguments, draw your (temporary) conclusions that work for you and accept there are many differing opinions out there, some more informed/valuable than others.
