“Ageism is real in our space. Older people are not slow, out of touch, or overly grumpy (to counter some common cliches)”
Ageism is real. Also as people age their mental faculties decline. Plenty of “old” people (read: not actually that old, sometimes in their 40s) are in fact slow and out of touch. It’s very much a thing if you actually know what gen Z life is up to (i’m not them)
“Young people please wise up”
Like this. This is very out of touch and grumpy and is going to fall flat on most people under 40
Your post is actually a great example of why old people are struggling more and more to hang these days (granted I don’t blame them, times are just changing so fast)
