For those who downvoted without comment: how did I say anything disagreeable, untrue, or otherwise meriting a downvote?

Challenging someone else's lived experience without providing any justification or alternative explanations, would be my guess.

I downvoted you because you're very obviously one of these "disabled" zoomers who's arguing for the whole concept without bringing any actual arguments.

Incorrect on every count, as a matter of fact. I do not treat my likely neurodivergence as a disability; I argued my point (which is absolutely not "for the concept" of those disability claims) very clearly; and I am in my mid 40s.
It seems that multiple people read:
> It's exactly because of the politics both that the students feel empowered to make those claims, and that the culture suppressing that questioning exists.
and somehow concluded that I am somehow legitimizing "those claims". I am genuinely unable to understand that.
