This sort of ageism is bikeshedding a nothingburger.
The real issue is the shunning, misery, suffering, starvation, and suicides of the elderly.
- cinntaile 3y ago> This sort of ageism is bikeshedding a nothingburger. There is something funny about this sentence. Ageism, bikeshedding and nothingburger all sound like relatively new and currently popular words. Using them all at once kind of turns it into a caricature, but maybe that was the point.
- antisthenes 3y ago> The real issue is the shunning, misery, suffering, starvation, and suicides of the elderly. ??? The current elderly have it by far the best out of any elderly generation that has lived during human civilization so far. Including the best possible health care and using up so much resources that it is likely siphoning it unsustainably from the younger generations, in the form of insolvent Social Security and other means. In what conceivable universe are elderly a concern?
