> The web is made from HTML, CSS and Javascript.

Considering the World Wide Web predates Javascript by many years, and the fact it's possible to create a functional, readable, and accessible Web page without Javascript altogether, this characterization is absolutely inaccurate.

You’re an asshole. If I could downvote your post, I would.

JavaScript and CSS can add a lot of bloat, unnecessary load times, and add massive security vulnerabilities. Sometimes you just want information, you know, without waiting forever and getting hacked.

I have decent bandwidth and I still find myself turning it off a lot.
