Yes wanting Biden to step aside in 2024 because of his age is ageism.

4. Well

Now that you have settled that, we can all go back to pretending that each of us aren't personally ageing either.

I plan to live forever while only getting smarter and sharper. Why shouldn't we expect him to.

The difference between racism and ageism is that we all face ageing. We see it in ourselves and we see it in our loved ones.

Time is undefeated. It gets us all eventually.

For the vast majority of jobs, there is no reason to anticipate the future effects of ageing. This is different because we are projecting out for six years from now. There are no certainties for any age candidate but the odds change drastically when projecting into that age range.

Besides, it doesn't matter what you or I think. It matters what the average voter thinks. We can win without a good chunk of normal everyday Americans joining the diehards here.

Let me ask a hypothetical question...if he were to lose, would you support him running again in '28 or '32 or '36. If you said yes, you are not being honest with yourself. If you said no, then you are also drawing lines and just choosing a different place to draw them.

The discussions aren't unreasonable. Certainly not anymore unreasonable than pretending that it doesn't matter.
