This is a great response because the initial question makes it seem like it's okay to disrespect younger folks. If they're talking down to you in a condescending way just say "do you think this is an appropriate way to talk to another adult?". Of someone at work is acting like you have no experience, highlight the experience and reiterate the point above, that it's not appropriate to talk to people like that.

Somebody talking to you like you're younger doesn't have to be condescending, even if you're being genuine and helpful you might talk about an issue differently to an 18-year-old fresh out of high school then you would somebody who's in their mid 50s.

Oftentimes you're correct that there is a lot of rude behavior wrapped into how we treat younger people, but they're not necessarily tied to each other.
