False. Old people are the worst. And many of them are dumb useless drains on resources.

In old times, people died a lot younger. From wars, diseases, other health problems. To get to an old age was an indication of wise decisions. That's where reverence for the elders comes from.

Today, any dumbfuck can get to be old. It doesn't mean as much anymore.

Hmmm.

I'd say more like a pile of 30 year old local newspapers (more like 30 year old letters from readers clippings), at the most generous average, analogy. (there's no way the average boomer is like a fact based library)

Now, if you want to talk college professors. Then I can maybe get on the library analogy.

At the risk of posting on in a troll topic....what exactly happened for you to create this topic? I'm sure that not only will you be an old person one day, but you're going to naturally want to live long enough to be an old person.

Yeah... And look WHERE that experience has gotten the world to. 99% of the global problems can be laid directly at the feet of people with those "decades" of experience you're trying to pass off as so important. Meanwhile, they can't even function in modern society

Exactly. They've seen some shit. That experience is important. Otherwise we would repeat the same problems.

There is such a thing as out of date, dusty, archaic, anachronistic, fossilized, stuck in the past.

Run Windows 95? Or a modern OS

This is pretty decent. Every old cranky coot thinks he's wise because he's old . Not that big a deal anymore.

I'd also point out people idolizing 1 ancient idealized figure and then comparing it to a modern average.

Nah fam. We don't need a single day of their greedy "me first" life. That keeping up with the jones' life. That fuck everybody, got mine life. At some point either we're going to have to start pulling together or that's gonna be the actual end of humanity. There's nothing they have to say worth listening to, and anyone who thinks so is lying to themselves or so indoctrinated that there's no helping them.

They have worth because we weren't around when they were. This is valuable.

As someone who currently works at a grocery store... I can confirm this.

Most of them are literally brain dead. Like.. legit zombies. And its honestly terrifying.

This. When you see the cognitive decline of some old people in day to day life and compare them to an older university professor, it quickly becomes apparent that many of these old people were stupid as hell to begin with.
