• Messiah Complex / Savior Complex / Manufacturing Victims: Creating a narrative where the targets are victims and the categorist is their savior. Related to supremacism (both hard and soft), voice appropriation, denial of agency, violence and enforcing cateity. For example defining all sex workers as victims, defining oneself as their "rescuer", and then turn hostile against any sex worker "ungrateful" enough to refuse to conform to the assigned narrative role.
• Excluding from definitions of rights (could use a shorter title): Defining rights in a way that exclude groups of people who should have them, or defining the group in a way that exclude them from the right. For example excluding same-sex couples from the right to marriage by defining marriage as "between a man and a woman". Or justifying rape against masochists or against sex workers by denying that they have the capacity/right to give valid refusal to sexual acts - a position often combined with denying that they have the capacity/right to give valid consent to sexual acts.
• "Pushing a minority group to distance itself from (and thus further stigmatize) another stigmatized minority group" - currently files under Kyriarchy, but might be better off as its own page. Kyriarchy should be focused on the higher status and cultural dominance of dominant groups.
