Resilience Culture versus the Rise of Identity-Based Disability

A shift in American culture is noted where historical resilience is being replaced by a "disability culture" that encourages young people to seek out psychiatric diagnoses. The discussion links identity politics and inherent guilt to the increasing number of individuals identifying as "neurodivergent" or mentally ill on social media. This trend is viewed as a form of mass conditioning that externalizes solutions to life's challenges rather than fostering internal strength.
