Instagram's anti-bullying efforts now extend to discouraging abusive behavior in posts, not just comments. It's introducing a feature that warns people when their post captions might be offensive, using AI to detect language similar to posts that have previously been reported. In theory, this makes bullies second-guess their vitriol, stick to kinder language and learn about the social network's rules.

I had a left leaning friend tell me I was using Vitriolic language last week when I posted a negative article on the philly soda tax discussing how sales of sugary goods went up right outside of city limits where the tax doesn't exist.

So, "STFU and eat a bag of dicks" is a no-go?

The world has gone full potato. Can't hurt anyone's feelings anymore.

I got banned from Instagram for two weeks for "shaming" because I called a couple guys out from my gym that left a bar loaded up with 400lbs of plates in the middle of the gym floor.

I kinda get it's not cool to "shame" people because they're fat or gay or whatever, but it's not quite the same thing when you're calling someone out on their behaviour, which is both douchey and fully in their control.

God forbid anyone be accountable.

It's because of people like you that I can't walk into a gym and sling a thousand pound barbell on my back, do a set of 12 squats, and head back to my truck without bothering with all the loading and unloading of weights that is clearly meant for the little people.

Asshole.
