“Biden is too old”, they said. So they elected this guy:
@randahl My concern is that kneejerk assumptions that age coincides with mental degradation can lead us to unwisely dismiss the wise counsel or guidance of older people who have much to offer.
@wesdym @randahl Counterpoint: wisdom does not inevitably arrive with age.

@masyukun

My point is that age =/= uselessness. ANY age.

This is a simplistic and unhelpfully reductionist way to deal with the world and the people in it. And we do it to our detriment. People must be assessed individually, not based on broad statistics.
