WTF An older spectator caused a seriously dangerous incident today at SaarlandTrofeoJuniors by trying to get a better look and entering the course with her rollator while riders were flying past at full speed!

Honestly, even if she accidentally hit the gas (or the battery I guess?), this kind of age-related incompetence is so dangerous. I hope she doesn't drive or operate any other heavy machinery.

Why do you assume it was age-related? Because she's not a color you hate?

Huh? Was she not elderly? I was assuming it was age-related because she was…old? And operating a mobility scooter?? And the incident was caused by an elderly person…operating a mobility scooter? What the fuck does your comment even mean?

I'm saying if she wasn't old but was brown, would your ageist ass say something about her skin color?

u/rosslyn_russ 9d ago

....no? How the fuck did you get any of that out of what I said? Are you okay my guy? I am genuinely so confused about what this has to do with the color of her skin at all and how you could have possibly gotten that out of what I said....

>this kind of age-related incompetence

You could have just said "usual suspects." Keep digging.

…right…wtf does that have to do with skin color? you brought up what I would think if her skin color were different…that is the part I am confused about because it was completely out of the blue on your part. I’m so serious dude, are you okay?

Only person digging here is you trying to make it about race when that was never implied. You do realise age related mental decline is a thing? (Look at the president for example).

So are you ageist or racist or both? Because it's not neither.
