Hot take, old is already equated with asshole. The current ruling class in the United states is predominantly ancient and white. The gerontocracy is the reason we are in this shitstorm. People have already been hating white people for decades, and ageism has been around since at least I was a kid.

My mom is an 'okay' boomer. My point stands.
