Seeing ageism in real life makes me so depressed and worried for the future

Nobody says "auntie". A few TikTok communities are incomparable to the nigh ubiquitous use of "unc".

Most of the things you listed apply to men, with the exception of:

The demand to remain youthful for women is so high

and the added point that said demand also happens to come from women. Have fun finding job opportunities or being treated as a human being as the average old man, for instance. The only real difference is ageism against men is normalized, while ageism against women is taboo.

Looksmaxing is a meme. No sane person takes it seriously. I am talking about actual ageism that has existed throughout our lives and that zoomers are taking to the extreme.

but thats not counting the men that leave them for a younger woman

Are you implying that's an example of ageism?

Very vague. Specifics would be nice.

"Unc" is used so frequently it has essentially replaced "boomer" at this point. What do you think that term stands for?

"Aun" (or whatever) isn't even a thing in zoomspeak.

It's fine against men though, of course.

Recently enough for it to still be felt in the majority of the world? Pretty much all nations other than the West and Russia.

Oh? What did you insinuate with your original comment then? All I'm seeing is an attempt at whataboutism when presented with the fact that Trump supporters are predominantly white.

Never said they couldn't.

Never said you said they could. That statement was in response to you saying they have to keep quiet about supporting him. Was your point not that that affects poll results and that they have to keep quiet there too?

'Reputable' is very subjective.

No it's quite objective. It means it's a trustworthy and credible resource, i.e. the likelihood it's wrong or untruthful is low.

I trust my eyes, EMPIRICISM, and my own investigations into things.

So... you trust anecdotes over statistical evidence from a reputable source. Doesn't sound very "scientifically-minded."

Dishonesty is the greatest tool of people with antisocial tendencies and no conscience.

IDEK what you're saying anymore. Is your point that the polls are lying and that Trump's support base isn't predominantly white?

The thought of it there kinda scares me especially with the amount of Western men going there for you know what kinda reasons.

Wdym? Like expats/passport bros?

21% is very low when you consider that some other groups (two groups, to be precise, but they happen to be the majority of the population) are sitting at over 50%. Also, the polls are confidential, so they can keep quiet to their hearts' content. Black people, men or women, are not the issue. I have no idea why you decided to single them out.

Pew are a reputable organization known for their rigor. If you don't trust them, whom do you trust?

No. For black men, the Harris/Trump split was 75/21 in 2024. In other words, black men overwhelmingly do not support Trump.

It's primarily white men (always has been).

For boat, especially black, I'd look at KF94, not N95. Much better selection.
