Do I need to have receipts to show that pre teens and teens generally have less knowledge than 30 year olds? Pretty sure I don’t because I wasn’t arguing what you are posting receipts about
Of course aging affects skills and abilities and when you start to get to the end of lifespans, memory and knowledge can also fall off, I’m not saying that doesn’t happen I replied to the idiotic statement that “Boomer doctors aren’t dead yet, and haven’t learned anything since the 70s.”
Ah, well, I can’t exactly force you to understand hyperbole. The fact that the next phrase was “but seriously” should have indicated the lack of seriousness of the first statement.
I understand hyperbole, that’s my whole problem, hyperbole used in arguments is like trying to argue with a chimp at that point
Now if what you actually meant was that you were being sarcastic then that’s fine I can get in on the joke you are attempting to make but I can’t exactly force you to understand sarcasm
Damn, it sounds like you’re lumping a bunch of people into a one size fits all category, telling me everything I need to know about you. (I believe that 70% of people are liquid, so that should tell you everything you need to know about me)
Just got around to replying and I’ll use this as my reply to you and Cryo…
If an individual person (not a group of people in case that’s not obvious enough) makes statements like all the black people I know are criminals, all the Jewish people I’ve ever met only care about money, every woman I’ve ever dealt with is emotional, boomer doctors aren’t dead yet and haven’t learned anything since the 1970s
Then yes in general I kinda think that tells me all I need to know about that person, they are using blanket statements about groups of people which is pretty idiotic, they later said they were being hyperbolic, okay fine still a dumb statement however
Ahh yes old people are dumb and bad, what a highly enlightened take you have there, you spend way too much time online
Anyone who willingly lumps a bunch of people into a one size fits all category tells me all I need to know about that person
Not sure if intentional, but hilarious either way

Okay so mostly all old people… got it.
And only in your limited worldview in your profession… somehow that didn’t seem to make it any better of an argument for me
You work in IT yet seem to know the training levels and requirements for doctors or perhaps you are just generalizing once again
I hate that I’m annoyed enough to provide receipts for something so obvious as “skills and ability decline with age”

A blanket statement of idiocy is what that is.
