The only thing that's happening here is that a community has formed around an evolving language and is taking advantage of some great tooling and open source projects to do some interesting stuff. That community isn't formed exclusively of wet-behind-the-ears web developers. It's comprised of developers of all skills levels with experience in a multitude of platforms and languages, just like any other. These people chose JS because it works for them and their problem set. To suggest otherwise is condescending to say the least. Stop trying to paint the whole community with a single brush, you sound ridiculous. If JS isn't your bag fine, move on, but less of the JS shaming please.
