Despite minor variations like the LIA and MWP and 8200 year event and Holocene Climate Optimum, the Holocene has had unusually stable temperatures for an interglacial. Compare to the other high temperature periods shown in the plot.

The figures you posted just prove my point.
Recall that I said, "If you want to call that (the Holocene) stable, then temperatures today are stable too." So the question is: Is what we see today unlike the rest of the Holocene? Based on the data you presented, I would have to argue no.
In the figures you provided, the temperature is in blue. During what you call the "stable" Holocene period, I count about twenty temperature rises (and falls) which are comparable to the trend of the last 150 years. So, if you call the last 10,000 years "stable", then the current trend is also stable because today is not unlike any of the many previous fluctuations during the Holocene.
