That is a completely false generalization, and you're stating it as fact. Sorry, you're just plain wrong. Your anecdotal experience isn't valid ammunition to just say C and C++ programmers are better than other programmers.

How is it that manual memory management is the only thing that makes a good programmer?

This frustrates me because if someone who didn't know how wrong you are were reading this, it would probably make them feel insecure.

Well, I just say in general and that's what I have found. Other people can comment based upon there experience. I didn't say that other programmers are not good or good enough, I myself code in Java more than C/C++.

This is anyway an opinion piece and you should take it as opinion, no one need to feel insecure because they don't know C/C++ but I do suggest them to learn C/C++ if you want to become a better developer. They are the language which takes you closer to metal and force you to learn some computer fundamentals which many programmers overlook in today's programming world.

Well, to be honest C developers are really bad because they aren't writing assembly.

(☝️ sarcasm)

Again, you're wrong and spreading disinformation in a way that's harmful, so forgive me if I'm annoyed.
