    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.

        I just realized that they did calculate it the wrong direction though, the 4/20 peeps are 3 months and 30 or 29 days old today (not sure on that) today.
