Nothing offends me except cruelty. Once cruelty is in the mix I give myself permission to respond in kind. I wish I wasn’t compelled by anger - ever - to ridicule anyone, I don’t. Exception? those who ridicule others. Then it becomes a lesson.

Once cruelty is imposed on others? the gloves are off.

I'm quite irreverent and thus, tolerant myself. Cruelty, in any form, emotional, physical, etc. is unacceptable and begs a karmic response.

Good points! I do think things work better in this life when people just mind their own business.

Since I'm retired, I no longer have my own business to mind. ;-)

Two Points:

1. Body shaming is where I draw the line, like making derogatory remarks about Trump's small hands is not funny, and not specific to DT. Most other things are fair game.

2. Let us not become the evil we abhor, always something to watch for.

Couldn't agree more. Off limits, out-of-bounds, verboten, prohibited. Another form of abuse that begs for Karma.
