the cultural boogeyman of the faker is such a convenient lie for ableism. Waste your time fighting about who does and does not deserve help, and maybe you wont realizes that there was never any help to begin with. The is no epidemic of malingerers taking up resources they don't need, there is a lack of resources for disabled people
I am vigorously nodding my head!
If you want to shut down IRL people trying to “debate” this issue (specifically people who are INSISTING that “fakers” exist), feel free to steal the line that my conservative parents didn’t like:
“I don’t care how many people exploit the benefits as long as one person who needs it can get it”
