Positivity can be very dynamic!

But maybe the reason there is a term called "toxic positivity" is because some people have used "encouragement to conform to unhealthy standards" as a way to shut down or exclude certain kinds of human beings from certain environments. 

So, as knowledge accumulates, why not evolve in outlook, so that what once passed for genuine positivity in certain places isn't so toxic anymore, and then some of those places won't be so abusive or exclusionary of others in the future?
