The competitive advantage of the young

None of this is about women. Denouncing sexism is a pretext that permits one competitor to damage another while playing the hero. Messrs. Biden and Fisher were successful in their fields, but vulnerable because of old age. They failed to keep up with political correctness.

Mock horror is the next generation’s form of rent-seeking, and political correctness the younger players’ edge.

Abigail Shrier, Ken Fisher, Joe Biden and the Merciless Young (emphasis added). That explanation make more sense to me than that something in the air, water, nature or nurture has actually made the little bastards as sensitive as they pretend to be.

I’m glad I read this. Ms. Schrierr may have just sold another copy of her forthcoming book
