Most of what opposition there is comes from people with projects which are some combination of under-staffed, poorly tested, or with a marginal approach to scheduling necessary maintenance work. That is not a great place to expect to find reliable maintenance contributions.
Where you are more likely to find this is from the major Linux vendors: e.g. Red Hat is committed to support it through 2024 and I would expect that they won't be alone in offering paid support for remaining users.
I'm actually (pleasantly) surprised that someone like Google (or a league of someones like Google) who have deep pockets and so much Python 2 that it's cheaper to maintain Python 2 than it is to port to Python 3. Perhaps they (correctly) were concerned about the ecosystem moving on toward Python 3, leaving them behind?
