Claim
Alienation in old age is a deeply troubling and urgent problem that society cannot afford to ignore. Elderly individuals are too often isolated, neglected, and stripped of meaningful social connections, leading to devastating impacts on their mental and physical health. This widespread alienation is not just a personal tragedy—it is a collective failure of compassion and responsibility. Addressing this issue must be a top priority for any truly humane and just society.
