This Magic: The Gathering card parody perfectly skewers the JavaScript elitism paradox. JS devs looking down on C++ programmers from their "ivory towers" while conveniently ignoring that V8, SpiderMonkey, and every other JS engine is built with the very C++ they mock. It's like criticizing plumbers while living in a house with running water. The pseudo-Shakespearean quote at the bottom is the chef's kiss - a pretentious garnish on an already delicious serving of irony. The mana cost of "1" is perfect too - minimal effort required to maintain this level of cognitive dissonance!
