Is he seriously using Javascript as an example of non-OOP language?

Having the idea of objects does not make a language "object oriented."

Compartmentalization and encapsulation are fundamental concepts of objects and those concepts existed long before "OOP" did

That was called modular programming.

SELF, which JavaScript takes its model from, is definitely OOP.
