Are we in an alternate reality where 67 year olds immediately drop dead? Is this an episode of Twilight Zone?

No. We are in a world where people don't bother reading comments rationally and jump to conclusions and get upset over nothing.

This is called a straw man. Where did I say this? Reread my comment calmly and rationally and you'll see I never wrote that.

"I'm all for continued learning but can't that be done in a non-credentialed manner that doesn't disadvantage young people?"

I'm all for old people living their best lives except when it directly and negatively affects young people for no reason other than pure vanity.

Irony is not conducive to good conversations.
