This sort of poisonous rhetoric doesn't shine a good light on PM. In fact, I think it tangibly damages the Perl community. I was going to ignore your post but I have seen it a couple of times now when looking at other responses, and every time I see it I dislike it even more.
If you don't like Perl 6 nobody is going to make you use it. I don't buy the "it's killing Perl 5" argument in the slightest. I strongly doubt that Perl 5 would be any more popular in 2018 with or without P6. The languages were designed by Larry Wall, who is entitled to progress the development of his creations in any way that he deems fit. Please stop hating on other members of the Perl community. It's a rotten way to behave.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
