One of the most prestigious universities in the US offers perks to those who say they have ADHD, night terrors, even gluten intolerance. You’d be stupid not to game the system

This is a perfect microcosm for the modern Democrat Party. Empathy as a pathway to Entitlement. You claim elitism but also claim disability.
DEI, disabilities, the whole letter crew (LGBTQIA++) are all just paths to optimize their ability to game the system with no shame. It is just "savvy optimization" and only punish the "honest" people who won't lie.
Another perfect microcosm. They system can't be challenged or changed. What happens at some point... you get someone who is willing to blow it up since it can't adapt.
Gaming the system is the logical choice. If you don't game, you are self-sabotaging. Why make your life harder when you can just lie and make it easier?
From day care centers, to autism centers, to hospice centers to SNAP, EBT, Social Security Disability and more, this is increasingly the norm in America and the only person who is punished are those who are too honest or who just believe they shouldn't game the system.
You hear the same excuses for illegal immigration. "How will you afford your construction, your lawn care, someone to pick you vegetables and clean your house (if you don't game the system?)
We are getting to the point, according to the facts presented in the article where the "Elites" will both claim they are elite but also entitled and disabled and no one should be "honest" enough and by that they mean stupid enough to question that hypocrisy and contradiction.
I'm willing to question in. In fact I'm willing to say that in a system that can't change or be challenged, I'm more than willing to risk the damage and harm of blowing it up. I'm not the one starving kids if SNAP can't be reformed. They frauds are the one risking it. I'm not the one harming people with legitimate disabilities. The people exploiting it for their own benefit are the ones harming them.
Empathy as a weapon needs to be stopped and those who exploit it need to be seen as vile people engaged in disgusting actions.
If we can't fix or question it. Destroy it. That's the norm and the modern Democrat Party that lives and breaths this stuff must either get out of the way or take their lumps when that creative destruction they prompted comes to pass.
