Old White Men's Lives Matter

What about Skaa

The discrimination old white men have put on others....

Sad but true. USA was extremely Racist within the lifetimes of most people here. USA still has residual Racism.

Prior to 1970s, USA was also somewhat Patriarchal.

Sure, let's all bitch about what happened more than 50 years ago, like that'll make some kind of difference. Let me clue you stupid bastards in on something; bitching about the past is about as non-productive as you can get. IOW, it doesn't fucking matter, and pissing and moaning about the past isn't going to help anybody one GD bit. But go ahead, waste your time if it makes you feel good.

More to do with being grumpy and old than it does about being white. Old folks don't always bother with the niceties that others do. When they are aggrevated, they complain. When they need to fart, they fart.

A real internet tough guy.

Sounds like Flash

54 is not "senior" dumbass righttard

Since most 50 year olds can qualify for senior discounts…society considers them “ seniors”.

Residual Racism still exists. Multi-generational poverty still exists.

I do not belong to a Racial Minority. I do have a disability which also makes my life in Society difficult. Poor people who have similar disabilities suffer much much more then me.

Residual Racism still exists. Multi-generational poverty still exists.

Yeah? And? Both have existed for uncounted millennia. Better than it used to be though, much better. I wouldn't argue that racism still exists today, but it's hard for the racists to escape the social justice warriors, and many of them pay a price for their actions. IMHO, too many people play the victim card for past injustices from decades ago to someone else instead of looking forward and taking action to better their lives. So what if your parents, grandparents, or great grandparents will the victims of racism, Jim Crow and all that. Get on with your life, and stop looking at past wrongs and using them as an excuse for not being all you can be.

It's hard for me to feel bad about multi-generational poverty. In this country so many have elevated themselves out of poverty, so it's doable but so many don't do it. Is it my fault that they don't? Or the fault of OWMs? How so? Got any evidence of that? I'll be honest, these days I wouldn't believe whatever evidence somebody presented anyway, my level of trust in just about everybody is pretty much shot to hell. So, if you wanna hate on me or one OWMs in general, go right ahead. But I hope you realize that you're wasting your time and energy, cuz I don't give a shit how you feel about me or OWMs.

My parents (alive and well) and Grandparents (RIP) were victims of a mild version of these laws -- as Jews in USSR.

Not a one you listed started at 50, some at 55.

Most do not consider 50 year olds to be seniors. A few restaurants trying to get a extra business does not really change that

Both of those are AARP discounts, not senior discounts.

You keep refuting your own claims

We don’t know the full story. They might just be old whiny assholes that no one wants to be around.

Per caring senior services:

“Go out to eat, see movies, visit museums and take that trip you’ve dreamed about. Fortunately, hitting a certain age – even as young as 50 – also means you qualify for additional senior discounts to do those things for less money. Never hesitate to ask if a business provides senior discounts!”
