Javascript kill switch question (hexbear.net)

What's a very easy way to kill all js at a particular domain? Ideally - I'd like some kind of kill switch I can click.

Example link at news4sanantonio.com. The damn site showed me page as normal but for only literally about one second. And then I got that very annoying error message.

The only way I know is via Ublock Origin. I have to write a couple filters and that's annoying.

! news4sanantonio.com

Trivia

The number of SCRIPT tags on that page is insane.

There's some old extension called uMatrix that lets you selectively kill JS based on the origin domain. So trackers are all dead by default and then you can prune further.
