True. Esp apparent to an American who’s lived in places where ‘oldness’ is not despised or feared and generations mix freely. Where spaces contain 80 year olds and 50 year olds and 25 year olds and no one doubts that all could have a good conversation.

And when you say this, everyone has a caveat - we would call any requirement for any demographic to give a 'purity test' of how Good They Are before we should care about them what it is...but younger people seem to have thrown every single person over 70 onto the Boomer Bus until proven otherwise.

We definitely have a systemic problem with aging and the aged, as well as a personal one. Another true thing is that an enormous amount of our elected officials are over 70, because of incumbency, and it is not representative. Both things can be true.
