i think it's important to recognize that disability benefits do not work the same way in every country, first.
Second, I'm actually pretty taken aback by the notion that those who accept or rely on disability benefits don't have pride.
Really?
Maybe think about these things before you write them, please. Perhaps that wasn't an intended insult, but it most certainly read like that.
Also, as long as the whole "us versus them" ideology is reinforced, stigma, fear, ignorance, etc will be perpetuated.
When people are put into factions and then either side reinforces those factions, individuals are labeled with traits and behaviors that don't necessarily apply to them. And it can happen to EVERYONE involved.
