Globally thats hard to argue with. Thats impossible to measure accurately tough. Locally that might not be the case. In my country the number of people older then me is still rising slowly. Refugees so yeah

I think because people can’t be born older than you after your birth date it’s actually true. No matter where you live, or people migrating to your country.. those people will have always existed and are older.
