I'm disappointed this culture war drivel got to the front page of HN. I have a close friend with DID caused by severe childhood trauma, who has contributed to the sorts of TikTok communities mentioned in the article.

Those faking it for attention or clout exist, and invented victimhood is definitely a thing, especially among the sheltered upper middle class. But most of this is just byproduct of youth and inexperience with the world that people tend to grow out of.

People like this watch teenagers still discovering themselves do or say some mildly stupid stuff and construe it as the collapse of society or something.
