"you should feel bad about the choices that led you to that point in your life" - I suggest you find help to deal with the bitterness you have inside of you.
I suggest you examine the state of the industry and the garbage that’s passed off as reasonable these days and ask yourself whether what you perceive in my comments is bitterness.
The garbage that dominates the web has everything to do with centralization of power, and nothing with HTML vs JS. The former is a people problem and the latter is just tech.
