They can’t help themselves. They have to feel superior to someone, and younger people are the easiest target for them. I truly don’t understand this obsession with everyone being a “child” it makes no sense and just babies people. These kinds of discussions take 0 brain power, if you notice, they don’t even discuss why they feel this way, it’s just mindless <25 = child nonsense.

The one from "NO MINORS" is also a racist. She got most popular comment calling the blocked one "little nigga" and she liked it personally.

Okay, this is sick and fascist! They need to get help for their prejudice and discrimination against something they do not understand.

Agree. Ageism is so awful. Like once, you’re able to communicate and do basic stuff then you should be treated as an equal. That’s usual sooner than 25 for most folk.

After I've seen so many of your social media online posts from you, I guess you're unlucky with your algorithm on Thread. Maybe you need to get off Thread or take a break from social media or especially find a way to change and manipulate algorithm back to its normal default state and stop being terminally online. Because I don't get algorithm like this on Thread or any social media platforms I'm in. And trust me, I've fallen into the same situration years ago (I was being terminally online and got weird algorithm like this) but I'm able move out of it.

"Like it ain't past their bedtime"

You can tell how deeply ingrained their desire to subjugate young people is. That came out like reflex. It's pathetic.

I swear any age gap involving someone under 30 is predatory to these ppl. Just an excuse to control ppl.

Subjugate? Pedophilia and grooming are major systemic issues in our culture and an extremely hot topic right now. Not only has it become a renewed global boogeyman as realization and evidence of its existence at the highest levels of anglo society is being discovered and discussed, it is an often leveraged vector for bad actors like trolls and manipulators to bring social harm to individuals knowing well that heresay is king and truth unsought.

You need to be able to separate those that are simply passing judgement out of a sense of maintaining ideals of social purity, those that have personally been hurt by it, those that are responding to an overwhelming realization, and those who fear becoming social victims.

Hate speech attacks, insults, and demeans characteristics that cannot be changed, while age changes all the time. Hate speech is rhetoric with the express purpose of self-soothing by releasing disgust, while these people are not disgusted by the subjects of that which you claim are hated.

Hate speech is intended to dehumanize those with faculties not truly dissimilar from one's own, but in truth before certain ages everyone's faculties are still coalescing, and while that's lived differently by everyone (we mature in spurts at our own times) the principle here is that we don't know enough to readilyvand empirically differentiate one case from another and so the less intelligent in such places opt to reverse forcefully in the opposite direction, but not out of hate.

At its worst this is concern gone wrong, but it is not hate.

Ageists regularly say teenagers can't consent to anything at all and that other ppl should be making every decision for them which is extremely harmful. Also if you look at the next couple slides you would see that people are saying 20 x 22 is creepy, so they could easily be talking about 17 x 19 as well.
