Another one I see is the super heavy handed monologue where a character suddenly starts giving a lecture on some social justice topic, like sexual consent, or slut shaming, or racism. I don't have to disagree with it to find it ridiculously over the top, ham-fisted, and out of character. If they can't handle these topics properly, I wish they don't touch it at all.

SAME I hate that. I also hate when the stories devolve into sending the character to therapy because 99/100 times the depiction of therapy is really inaccurate and involves points that would never actually fly in real life.. like the therapist being their friend outside of the office... wtf lol.
