Adding ageism on top of authority fallacy is not an argument. Explain why it's zero sum. Explain why comparison has to be avoided especially in a social heirarchy and explain why the examples I gave are wrong, or I'm going to resign you to saying whatever you want to say with no real argument. So far I haven't heard anything that makes any sense besides "it makes me feel bad"...which is just evidence that you feel bad. I'm okay with that. I just thought it was a interesting subject and thought your original post was missing a lot of information when it comes to social comparisons.
