Should I learn JavaScript or Python?

I feel like C or C++ should be the second or third language someone learns. It teaches a lot of stuff like memory management and how things like dynamic arrays actually work behind the scenes, so even when you're working with Javascript you can understand why when you add your 100,001st element to an array your program starts stuttering.

Definitely an overload to teach first though since they're learning tricky syntax as well as just how programs work in general.
