This. Although I can see casuals say a few of the things the OP listed, in some circumstances and with some conditions met.

What are things that non-gamers/casuals say about gaming which pisses you off?
here's an example list I made:
1. Pokemon is a game for kids.
2. Why get a gaming device if you can play games on your phone?
3. Games promote sexism, violence, racism, etc.
4. Handhelds are such trash. Phones are superior.
5. buying games is such a waste of money.
6. Why can't games like Uncharted be on my phone?

Of your list, I can see some (well, far too many is more correct ) casuals swallow bigots' bullcrap and say something like your point 3, and if they are tight fisted f2p gamers, they can agree with point 5 too. True casuals will play whatever is available on the platform they play on and that attracts their attention, they won't care about exclusives of platforms they don't own, and in most cases they won't even know about their existence. True casuals won't say negative things about platforms they don't own, they just won't care about them at all.
Edit: PS: True casuals will definitely play Pokémon Go and they won't consider Pokémons kiddy-only stuff, heck, they have no problem to play Candy Crush, Angry Turds and so on...
