Kotlin ‘built by communism’? Because the founders of JB are Russian? Is that it?
Swift is ‘greed’ how? It’s open source since 2015 or so; & available on Linux. Apple’s graphical toolkits are ‘closed down’; & obviously restrict users’ freedoms; though not sure how that implies ‘monopoly’. ‘Monopoly’ would be trying to dominate all toolkits, not have one’s own.

Haskell isn’t really that hard to learn. It’s just changing the paradigm, that takes a mind shift for the first two weeks, maybe a month.
I don’t play games that much to make such comparisons, though.
Swift is open source, I don’t get the “lesson in corporate greed” angle.
