Both mentalities are bad. I would actually venture to say that the "singletons are evil" mentality is worse, since enthusiasts tend to grow out of the "singletons are awesome" phase. But if someone believes that all singletons are always evil, how do you persuade them of the depth of their error? This is a much harder problem: it is a complete failure to understand what a 'pattern' even is, and why the 'forces' are so important for understanding the pattern.
