It's important to point out that this advice can exist alongside the fact that it is OK (necessary to civilization, even) to criticize anything hellish in one's society (e.g. the very article this comment is responding to). The advice in this comment is not a counterpoint to the article.

We can do the miserable things that are necessary to secure our lives while also fighting to stop the people who are forcing us to do those miserable things.

Unrelated: When you say, "No him/her", I honestly can not tell what you are saying. I'm not being sly - I really can't tell if you're saying:

1. People should pretend to not be trans (scary, but a very common form of hatred).

2. Don't mention your pronouns even if you're not trans (which, ok, so maybe you roll your eyes when people do that, I don't even think that's insane - but what on earth does that have to do with having a bad "attitude"?).

3. A 3rd thing I can't think of?
