Tbird83ii@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 months agoTechnically this is discrimination based on age.
They were born 4/20/(year). You could make an argument they are discrimination on all people exactly (X) years, 4 months, and 2 days old.

No, the comment was written on the 18th so 2 days. The 4 months only matches because this is December.

wtf does the comment date have to do with April being the (4th) month and the (20th) being the 20th day of the month?

Because how old someone is is relative to the current time. And that’s the wording that the commenter used: People who are x years, y months, and z days old. The next day those same people will be a day older.
Say the discrimination was about people born on Dec 20 instead of April, in that case they (where I am) are currently X years, 11 months, and 30 days old, and tomorrow is their birthday.

Yeah we typically thing age discrimination is saying we only hire people between 20-40y/o but it would also cover it if you said “I won’t hire someone 21 years old only” and still applies to banning someone 21.5 years old. And 21 years and 6 months and 27 days old.
Same applies if I ban anyone with an age divisible by 3. It’s a group of people, but if their age has anything to do with why you aren’t hiring them then I’d say this applies.
