Is there any use in learning an "easy" programming language?

Go is as serious as it gets. Go is also pretty simple and gives you great foundation and understanding.
Either go with Go (!) or with a lisp like racket, following the book https://htdp.org/ These are different approaches but will give you a huge headstart and better understanding of how to actually design a system instead of getting lost in code. I personally recommend the second approach to people who ask me.
