Concerns were raised that the DOGE rep — a former SpaceX intern — did not have the background investigation required to access the Department of Energy’s system.
That’s exactly my point, just like saying a 23-year-old lacks the life/work experience necessary to be meddling in intricate government systems unsupervised.
Leave it to CNN to somehow bring ageism into an otherwise pertinent topic. That doesn’t belong in the headline.
If you want to say they’re inexperienced, then just do it. That might require verifying factual evidence, though.
I don’t know if their age is relevant or not.i keep Going back and forth on this.
I tend to side with you on this, but part of me remembers that the brain isn’t fully formed until you’re around 25.
So it would be relevant if the guy was 7 in the same way it’s somewhat relevant that he is 23.
Wouldn’t that be “ageism” too? What a ridiculous argument.
Why would saying that someone lacks experience in something be ageism?

I’m not sure I follow your point.
Do you agree with Trump then?
Please explain how you came to that conclusion after reading their comment. Holy shit.
