Dealing with Donk bets

This is a common spot in my pool, even MW, where players are donking top or 2nd pair random gut shots etc. I am not sure how to proceed here with my own gut shots, AQs with bdfd etc. Snap shot is from Peter's most recent video. Talks about raising KQ, sets, and 2 pair, but doesn't talk about raising other hands. I feel like hands like QJ, QTs, J10, etc become easy calls on the flop, but feel like i'm over folding turn a great deal when they donk bet and barrel. A lot of the time its a hand like K4s. I feel like donk bets kinda freeze us. If you analyze what hands you cbet on this board vs what hands you continue with vs a donk bet, I feel for myself I am grossly over folding vs donk bets. Cutoff has about 25% of hands here, so going to be a ton of air in range that just folds vs donk bet.

How are you approaching these spots? What hands are you raising with? Is there a heuristic to follow?
