Why Discrimination Wont End Stupid Article about Social Media Manager Age Limit

Why Discrimination Wont End Stupid Article about Social Media Manager Age Limit I dont want to focus on this ridiculous article: Why Every Social Media Manager Should Be Under 25, or the 600+ comments on the article, most of them probably blasting the author. I want to focus on a reality and truth: YOU are being discriminated against.  Period. As long as there are articles like this (and the many thousands of people who think like the author, but dont have a platform or the time or guts to write about it), discrimination will exist. I think this article had a backfire effect, which is to show young recent-grads as entitled, out-of-touch, and having poor judgement skills. How do you defeat discrimination?  You can call for legislation (yeah, that will work not), or you can figure out how to deal with it. How do you communicate that the reason you are being discriminated against is not a liability?  Head-on and tactfully. How do you do it? This is not a pink elephant this is front-and-center, and probably the biggest concern my audiences across the U.S. worry about.
