HTML/CSS Positioning Problem / Divs Colliding


I have tried fixing this one issue for over 4 hours now and it's getting quite frustrating, I am a beginner when it comes to HTML/CSS and I would greatly appreciate the help!

Goal: Place ".menuButton" on the bottom left corner + ensure that the icon actually shows up

Please bear in mind that the code runs alot better on my end and everything is correctly positioned + the social icons do show up, my only issue has been placing .menuButton on the bottom left, as I am not entirely sure why the positioning is so bad.

P.S This isn't a simple fix like trying a different display: option, positioning, or changing margins, trust me I have tried almost everything | Also ensure there are no issues with the background

P.S2 For a better interpratation of the code please check the codepen and test your answer there
