thats not actually true. especially since the 50+ people are the "leaders". That have instructed everyone to do the unethical things. Actually in general, older people seem to be more racist, more homophobic, etc. So i'm not too sure they are magically more ethical.

I see a lot of young people making assertions based on race and other indelible characteristics, with the idea that doing so is somehow intellectually and morally worthy. Back in the day, someone proposed that people should be judged on the content of their character. I would urge young people to be wary of those who try to attach negatives to indelible characteristics, like age.


the comment i was responding to made a similar claim (except about young people). im just showing them how that thinking can be used
