Please avoid sharing opinions that, while they may not violate our terms of service/rules, could still be offensive and extremely hurtful to others. Additionally, if you choose to share such views, it's unreasonable to criticize others for responding in kind.

For example, spouting "I don't date fat women" or " I think all women belong in the kitchen" doesn't violate our terms of service or rules, but it's still offensive. You can expect people to have strongly worded replies. It doesn't mean Spoutible is toxic; it means you said something stupid.

Reposting:" This is not a land without conflict. It is a land w passionate opinions + strong ideas. Adapt! Go with the Flow." And if you post stupid 💩, expect appropriate consequences.

What’s really bothering me is, the main insult of the orange IT as of late, is his weight. I’m sorry (no I’m not), but if you’re fat shaming ANYONE, then you’re shaming everyone who is over 24.9 BMI. Your significant other, child, best friend. If I’m off here, someone please set me straight.

Many memes touchings on this are mendacity shaming, possibly not realizing that this is also adjacent to fat shaming.

Oh I have definitely been in people’s mentions on here about fat shaming and ableism… and I’ve seen a lot of others too. ❤️

How about some examples? What is an example that you feel is likely to not be offensive to most but may be to some, so that you feel not only a right to say it but a good reason to?

As we approach another end-of-democracy election fueled by white supremacy and hate, I'm distressed at the prioritization of and demand for comfort and safety by our country's most protected and privileged. If you can't yet see or respond to unkind words on a screen, that you can ignore, then...

I'm very grateful that, at times in my life, someone has corrected me when I said something stupid. I'm also grateful that when someone calls me out for saying something they think is stupid, it is an opportunity for us to talk about it more. My goal in life is to be kind and do no harm.

I'm always amused that people who say offensive shit think they're being censored when others call them out on their shit. Like freedom of speech should only work in their favor.

I respectfully disagree. If someone says something ignorant or stupid, it is still our responsibility to respond with restraint. Point out to error without “responding in kind.” If
we want a community built on kindness, that ought to extend to all corners.

In response to Connell McGrath.
Connelly, the tips that I learned for addressing hateful messages:
1. Take a a few secs to breathe.
2. Re-read the comment. Could it be meant in jest or as sarcasm?
3. Let the person know that their message was not okay.
4. Ask the person to not repeat the offense.
5. BLOCK if repeated.

Connelly, I also learned that it is not ok to watch someone else get unfairly bullied or attacked on social media. If you see something then say something to help the other person with as much calmness and positivity as you can. If abuse continues, report the offense. We are all brethren.

I refrained from a snarky reply to several Spouts yesterday.
I also refrained from reporting said Spouts.
Both of them WERE free speech, and IGNORANT.
I really wanted to do all of the above.
I must say, I loved the kick back of Spoutanians 💙🐳

And as an occasional sufferer of foot in mouth disease, you know what works GREAT if you accidentally screw up? Apologize sincerely, try to do better, and accept any ratio that happens as a learning opportunity.
It's really pretty simple to not be an asshole.

Isn’t it great to shift your thinking? I’ve had my ass handed to me several times and have been grateful for the education when they could have left me to persist in my ignorance.
