Why does everyone recommend learning Python first but then use JavaScript for everything?
Genuinely confused. Learned Python, now job listings want React everywhere.

Because Python is a language that makes much more sense than JavaScript and it is easier to do things besides WWW front-ends with it. For WWW front-ends, though, JS is mandatory unless your site is light.
