You didn’t have to then with similar risks because the state did not tell you too. You chose that argument, multiple times.

I haven’t called you stupid, haven’t said you are going downhill because you disagree with me, I haven’t demanded you do what I want and ignore your own thoughts, I haven’t criticized you for whatever age you are. It really brings out how respectful and caring about others your side is. Fire away, it’s very mature and strengthens your argument.
My bad on the ad hominems. From what I've seen of your generation though including my own family, the ageism is somewhat justified.
