I’ll say this again because people are downvoting as if I’m trying to defend this practice: I think it’s stupid.

Now, what I’m pushing against is this idea that it is “ageist”. I’m no native speaker but ageist is defined as

> a bias against individuals and groups based on their age

Now if I decide to fire everyone who’s making more than 500k at a company and it just so happens that those people are all above a certain age I don’t think that’s ageist. It’s certainly stupid and I think I made it clear. It’s a money driven decision, which is also stupid.

I just think it’s important of accuse people of the right thing if you want to accuse them of something. That’s all I’m saying.

But again, the fuck do I know. I don’t work in corporate, don’t play the stupid ladder game, will never get a promotion. I’m just here sharing a random thought on the bizarre business world you people live in.

In most of these corporations, the people making the most are older.

They don't have a habit of hiring young rockstars with insane salaries (because these people wouldn't fit the culture).
