This is exactly what they do to social movements that threaten their bottom line.
This is a complete mockery of what dysphoria means to people . They know exactly what they’re doing by watering down and purposefully misusing “dysphoria” to mean “oh you’re actually doing great why are you so sad?” It’s sadistic.
Oh yeah, what a glorified glamorous lifestyle, being able to own a home and afford living with just one job’s income.
dysphoria != dysmorphia.
your point still stands.
Dysphoria would be a more apt description, because it’s just a profound state of unease or distress that could be related to anything. Dysmorphia, like this dumb article uses, specifically refers to dissatisfaction with the shape of one’s body
TIL I have dysmorphia
Honestly probably a majority of people do, but it’s only for a much smaller subset that it becomes clinically relevant, meaning it significantly impacts someone’s functioning in other areas of life
