Where does Coexist fall on this list?

I said in OP that "READ" was the second most cringe because "COEXIST" is at #1 by a mile.

The "READ" sticker like most bumper stickers is just people with shitty instincts thinking that they're impressing strangers. It's elevated to #2 though because of it being a command. Wagging a finger and barking orders at complete strangers demanding that they do an activity so that they can be as virtuous as the sticker owner is hilarious. And that is a fact.

"Coexist!", on the other hand, checks all the same boxes as "READ!", but what takes it into the stratosphere at #1 by light years is how shockingly ignorant the command is.
