I'm not really sure sure that's true.
In FP languages like Haskell, you get tools like algebraic data types, typeclasses, and pattern matching.
FP is really opposed to imperative programming, while objects are opposed to algebraic data types.
You can write OO code that's 100% fully functional, and you can write code in Haskell or rust where you barely notice you never once used an object.
