how quickly you’ve leapt to cognitive decline betrays an underlying ageism
This is a belief I've developed over years, I used to believe the same as everybody else - that social etc factors like raising kids got in the way.
But its too universal within pop music (and I think some other fields mentioned in another comment) to be explained as anything but age-related cognitive decline - which by definition will be "ageist" if you want to resort to that sort of language.
- BenFranklin100 3y agoIf you sincerely believe people undergo a steep cognitive decline starting at the age of 30, at least you will have the comfort of a soft landing.
- mellosouls 3y agoNo, it starts earlier in outputs-manifestation when it comes to the outliers in some creative pursuits like those mentioned. Most people won't experience it in effect (in the end products of their creative output) as most people aren't outliers producing brilliant work.
