Some of the phrasing is extremely sus. The last one in particular: "to protect the feelings and safety of marginalized groups"

๐ŸŽผ Is ๐ŸŽถ Not ๐ŸŽต Like ๐ŸŽถ The ๐ŸŽต Other ๐ŸŽถ

Yeah that seemed like obvious manipulation to me as well. If you're going to conflate them both that's already a mistake. To put safety second is obvious de prioritization and most people will then subconsciously think primarily of 'feelings' in that question's context.
