Agree. Of course someone will also throw out the caveat that stereotypes can sometimes be harmful and hurtful, which I won't dispute, but stereotypes are like lunch meat: they're bad for you in large amounts, you don't want to see them in the process of being made, and yet sometimes they're the only thing you can afford.

Race essentialism is another example. Stereotypes are bad if they’re used against you, but good if they make you feel like you belong, supposedly.
