I recognize the community, but I'm referring specifically to "gifted and talented" programs as referenced in the meme, not just ADHD.

I also recognize they were not originally intended to be filters for society and likely had good intentions at inception, so I'm suggested they have been co-opted as a means of social correction by evil actors over time

I can see the appeal of thinking that your genius is being suppressed by an evil cabal who is afraid of your power, but it's much more likely that the system is designed for neurotypicals because there's more of them.

I feel like this person is doing the serious version of what I say when I claim there's a conspiracy against us left-handed people, when in reality we're like 10% of the population.

Still makes it no less annoying to only have a potato peeler with a blade on the side where you can't use it.
