Yeah, gonna have to disagree. If I had to choose between JS and Python, I'd shoot myself in the head.

python in the same league as cpp, rust and c# is the real joke

it is a horribly slow, ugly language, with the most braindead scoping rules (apart from js, of course). The only fast parts of it are libraries written in other languages, because python itself is not up to the task for anything more than glueing code from other, better languages together.

Honestly JS seams saner then python, it's wierd but rather sane. The only really bad parts of JS are the type coercing == and =! operators which are very broken

For example "" == 0 and 0 == "0" are both true, but "0" == "" is false.

Python is rather the clown. As it is more Scratch than a programming language

Someone tried to learn python and failed.

One of us has spent the last three months trying to help their client untangle their massive python monolith that makes all their in house engineers quit.

Python is a good language for writing a data processing script, not for building a large piece of software.

We all know C# is the real clown.
