“Ageism” seems to be the latest move of the woke culture which is adding yet another ingredient to the Marxist soup of fake grievances they use to entice new followers.
As of “racism” wasn’t enough, here comes “ageism”.
What’s ageism, you might ask. Exactly. Another made up label, another lever in the ever-evolving machine of identity politics.
That’s right, the woke Neo-Marxist Left isn’t sitting around doing nothing.
I assume soon everyone who dislikes their nose, hair type, ear shape, or size of genitalia, will be able to join the ranks of the offended in the Army of the Perpetual Victimhood.
Back to “agism”. The woke Left is working hard to get young people to have a grievance over the fact that older people at work don’t pay them enough respect in the work place.
Are you serious?
Yup.
Young and feeling not respected enough by those older at work, can get you a spot right next to BLM
types ready to torch cities and tear down statues of America’s founding fathers.
You might even get cozy with the “tolerant” LGBTQ division that loves to hate. Not to be forgotten – there’s the Burka-flaunting, praying-five-times-a-day-at-their-workplace Muslims, and who knows who else. It’s hard to keep up with the constantly growing list of grievances the Left manufactures all the time.
One Emma Waldman for example is offering advise to the “victimized” youth over at the Harvard Business Review: https://hbr.org/2020/11/gg-ascend-pub-11-11-how-old-is-old-enough
Here is GlassDoor virtue signaling, too.

Tension between people from different generations has existed since time began. All kinds of books, operas and movies have been made through the ages looking into this ever-present social dynamic.
There is no formula how relationships between people from different generations can be resolved. As times change, the approach to these dynamics changes, too. Then there are unique cultural frameworks that play part in this as well.
But no, leave it to the Left to politicize EVERY aspect of human life. And by politicizing I mean dividing. That’s what the Left does. They divide and sow enmity because their agenda absolutely needs people feeling angry, bitter and entitled.
