Women are not inherently gentle nurturers. Black people are not a race of brave freedom fighters. Indigenous peoples are not all (shudder) noble nature warriors. Jewish people are not meek, helpless sufferers. Screw your "positive" stereotypes, dehumanization with sparkles and smiley faces is still dehumanization, a promise to revoke our human rights the moment we fail to live up to impossible standards.

reduce your ableist language (contains examples of same) 

There’s a *lot* of ableist language in common parlance. These words and similar ones exist as slurs towards neurodivergent folks in particular. Try pushing yourself to replace/eliminate them.

crazy, insane, mental ➡️ wild, surprising, hectic
dumb, stupid ➡️ foolish, silly
idiot, moron, dumbass ➡️ bigot, asshole, fool

In addition, you are encouraged to think through what you’re trying to say better, and address what the real issue worth criticising is. And if you can’t rephrase it, maybe it didn’t need to be said at all.

TERFs, gender discourse 

TERFs specifically come from 2nd wave feminism where they conceptualize gender as a social structure used by men to oppress women, but see men and women as fundamentally biologically different sexes without overlap.

when radical feminists want to "abolish gender" they are referring to abolishing the social order of gender and establishing an explicitly biological determinist sex division. this is bad and harmful, and specifically seeks to harm trans and nonbinary people.

Pep talk 

What if, when people say you're great, you could realize that:

Rather than not seeing you completely and assuming you're better than you are, they ARE seeing all the times you're not perfect, and yet the *overall* feeling they have about you is that you're great
