Why complain of ageism in AMERICA when you help to promote it?
Middle aged and beyond constantly complain about having to cope with age discrimination and stereotypes of older people that often border on absolutely ridiculous.
But if you participate in making older people look like buffoons,
then why are you whining?
I am making reference to a popular commercial about the world about to end and suddenly a food market is overfilled with young people fighting to buy avocados.
The scene changes and the market is overfilled with senior citizens fighting over bags of dried prunes.
If I was an senior actor you think I would have wanted to play a role in a commercial that stereotyped old people?
Hell no I would pull out my food stamp card and count iton a meal from it before I would join Hollywood in making older people look like damn clowns.
Hollywood is partially responsible for 20th century negative turn around of the world cultures views on aging.
We want ageism to end
It can't end if you aid those who have lopsided view of older women and men.
