Shunning is the best first recourse we have. It's nonviolent and you can stop at any time if they change. We should be shunning people with intolerant beliefs.

the internet gives harbour for the shinned. allows them to reinforce the behaviour and probably amplify the behaviour.

Shinned sounds like a verb for when you either kick someone in the shin or get kicked in the shin.

In any way, I am up for dickheads being first shinned and then shunned.
