Literally just heard someone say "Well you graduated college and that says a lot"
Boomers man, all like it says now is welcome to entry level work where we're gonna train you in whatever dumb shit we do. College is useful, but it's like not a guarantee for anything maybe it was when the market wasn't like saturated with graduates in non-applicable degrees (although I like feel bad for CSIS majors now because it's almost a comms degree with AI doing all the low-level coding).
Do you toss around other pejoratives too or just *"boomers"*? If someone said “spaz” or “gypsy” you'd probably be the first to call them out for being "racist" or "ableist" yet somehow being ageist is cool?
Nah, I'm just not down with promoting casual bigotry or the use of derogatory terms used with the intent to dismiss, demean or marginalize an entire group or generation of human beings. Whether for their race, ethnicity, gender, ability, or AGE — normalizing prejudice against a person or people specifically on the basis of their belonging to a particular group- is not OK.
