I got to 'if you're in the closet about your disability then YOU'RE (probably) NOT DISABLED', and I am LIVID. I know plenty of people who don't disclose diagnoses because of fears of losing their jobs. That does not mean they are faking or that their fears are unjustified.

Her position appears to be that, because *she* lost her job for that reason, everyone else should take the same risk. (Though she’s got such a well-established track record of being a raging asshole that at this point it’s hard not to think her behaviour was also a factor.)
