I would guess that most active dislike of a language comes from being forced to use it for a job.

Some of the languages with really low negatives are probably only there because they are rarely used commercially so no one is being forced into using them.

JavaScript's standing is pretty amazing considering how widely used it is commercially and that everyone is forced to use it.
