Is it true weightlifting hurts you in the long run? Should I quit and do calisthenics instead?

do some research and you'll find everything hurts you in the long run. do whatever makes you happiest and feel the best. if you love what you do then you'll want to keep doing it, and thats a far easier form of "discipline" than hating on yourself every day.

Calisthenics will also hurt you in the long run, many planche/handstand positions will put high strain on your wrists

Moderation is key. Too much of anything is bad for you.

Joe toe fag said that he won't increase weight anymore and now just busts out as many reps as possible like 70 lb dumbbells bench press as an example

my dad is 60+ years old and he can still run fairly well, he used to deadlift over 500 lbs back in his younger days.
