I expected this to be a woke rant, and thus expected to be angered by it. Instead I found it to be both reasonable and wise.

My favorite:

12. Let people be wrong about things - about facts, about politics, about you. Leave them to it. Learn to walk away from and let it all go.

This is even better as a principle of personal interaction. The poster presents it, I think, plausibly enough, as a pragmatic, make-your-life-easier rule, but there is also much spiritual wisdom in not defending yourself against accusations (especially with people you know and love).
