* HeelFaceTurn: Plushie Dreadfuls' original autism-representing rabbit, the Hope Bunny, was designed by Autism Speaks, an organisation which does a lot of harm to autistic people. When they received complaints, they discontinued it and designed the Autism 2.0 Bunny with more input from autistic designers. In the fanfic universe, Hope Bunny is Autism 2.0 Bunny's big sister who was used as a poster child for ABA therapy and used to think it worked, but has now realised her therapist was abusing her and promotes less harmful autism acceptance.

Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalVillainy: The Squishmallows characters are almost all jerks of one type or another, as a TakeThat to the company for supporting the occupation of Palestine. Cam is especially so because one of the authors particularly dislikes Cam's treatment of Fifi in the Squishville cartoons.
* AllJewsAreAshkenazi: Averted; Cam is, but Scruffy is Afro-Palestinian.


Added DiffLines:

* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Cam really did have a horrible thing happen to him, suffering a serious genital mutilation in infancy and being raised as the wrong gender. This isn't used as an excuse for or even ''related'' to his behaviour now, though.

* BoomerangBigot: Cam is trans and intersex, but willing to misgender Scruffy Bumps out of malice, though Scruffy is also both those things. He's also Jewish and spreads horrible rumours about Jewish people who support Palestine, including claiming they're antisemitic.



* DoesNotLikeMen: Regina, Seluna, and Sunny are radical feminists.
* {{Eurabia}}: Not actually a thing in-universe or out, but some of the characters seem to think that it would be the result of the world supporting Palestine over Israel.
* FalseAccusations: Cam's stock in trade as a psyop.



* MustHaveCaffeine: Matcha Bunny is very disappointed that Big Coffee supports a cause they find morally repulsive so they can't buy from them anymore; the other characters suggest alternatives.

* ItsAllAboutMe: Cam butts into conversations which had nothing to do with Israel to talk about how horrible anti-Zionists are.
* JerkassHasAPoint: Scruffy is rude, hostile, ill-wishes Cam, and accuses him of causing "'unclear' sexual situations" with little evidence, which doesn't help him get people on his side when Cam smears his name, but he's right that Cam is both a worse jerk accusing far more people of worse things and a psyop intentionally provoking fights to make anti-Zionists look bad.

Added DiffLines:

* AssholeVictim: Both of them to each other, to some extent, Scruffy being more the victim than Cam. Scruffy Bumps says some thoroughly unpleasant things to Cam, but Cam then smears him, a Jewish man, as an antisemite.
* {{Catfishing}}: Cam really is a young Israeli intersex trans man, but he's paid by the government to stir shit on social media in favour of Israel.
* GroinAttack: Cam lost his penis as an infant in a botched circumcision.
