Why?

Ageism is applied equally among all races, sexes, religions, etc. Time/age works the exact same for all of us equally.

Selective service policies subject men to risks to which women are not equally subjected, but since the vast majority of our legislators throughout history have been men, this makes it much different from the institutional racism of redlining.

Whereas selective service policies are enacted by those in power at the expense of those who are more or less scheduled to be in power, redlining was a series of acts executed by those in power at the expense of people who were never intended to even be allowed to pursue said power.
