> prefer young people because bullshit is harder to swallow the older you get You know, it's frightening this sentence is still true if you replace "bullshit" with "dreams" and "swallow" with "believe." It's frightening because ignoring your dreams is the most common regret of the dying. So age might only on the surface be a filter. The true filter might be optimism. I sincerely hope you don't ignore your dreams.
