Technically, yes. At least here in the US "ageism" is one of the protected classes.

"
In all 50 states, federal law makes it illegal to discriminate based on:
  • race
  • color
  • national origin
  • religion
  • sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions)
  • disability
  • age (40 and older)
  • citizenship status, and
  • genetic information."


Some states also have additional protections, those are just the federal ones.
Of course, this list mostly just applies to hiring, firing, renting to, and other things like that.

No because in this case it's obviously categorically justified.

J/k, it depends on the boomer in question, as with everything.

We shouldn't stereotype a whole generation of people (just like they should'nt generalize millennials and Gen Z). Not all boomers are godawful, selfish, people.

The ones that are deserve all the hate they get. The worst boomers are worse than the worst of millennials/Gen Z and there's no arguing that.

Nah. Nobody has the right to do stuff like that. I still find it funny how many boomers had such hatred for millennials when it was boomers who raised us. It was boomers who came up with participation trophies. It was boomers who over corrected and made everything so safe and sanitized which supposedly turned us all into complete pussies.
