Modern JS is not a bad language and it's time for hating on it to go out of fashion. I'm not saying it's a bad language any more than I'm saying that strawberry ice cream is bad. I'm merely stating the fact that there's a non-trivial amount of people who abhor strawberry ice cream and JS. I find your reply, that strawberry ice cream is perfectly fine, a strange one.
