This is an interesting one because I’ve more than once been given this feedback, but there’s a nuance… one can give honest feedback in constructive and helpful ways or just being a dick about it.

I know it’s hard when the stupidity is so obvious, but that doesn’t really excuse being a jerk. Now, some people aren’t going to like what you have to say regardless, and you better have a good argument or alternative for your honesty. Being a seagull and just shitting all over everything and calling it “honesty” is no excuse.

Be a part of the solution, but never be afraid to speak up and hold your ground (even if some people don’t like it).
