I think COBOL is not a question of hate vs not hate. To hate something you need to consider it, you need to have requirements. If nobody shares an article like this one nobody is actually THINKING about COBOL. If someone starts a new project COBOL is not on the list of possible programming languages to implement it in. If you want to make it more popular don't fight hate, fight ignorance.

But to be honest I'm one of these people who up till now doesn't even consider it a choice. So don't expect too much support or understanding from my side.
