This is straight up agism and should be banned. It's like saying black people can't code as well as white people.

Carmack and Torvalds would disagree with you.

Would you say, broadly, concepts you disagree with or find uncomfortable should be banned? Do you think that's sufficient, or should they be criminalized as well?
False information targeting a group should be banned in my opinion.
Or just counter bad ideas with good ideas and let the up/down votes take care of the rest.
Thats not how it works.

If I call you an idiot I will get banned.

It's not up to you to prove you're not actually an idiot no matter if its true or not.

Relax. Opinions aren't that big of a deal.

This isn't twitter. You don't need to demand a ban against the first bruise to your ego.

Wrong comparison, black vs white is racism, ageism is real
