Ariel Winter Calls Out Body Shamers Once Again With Instagram Post About Self-Acceptance

"I love my bullies for what they truly NEED is love."

Once again, Ariel Winter is dealing with body shamers on Instagram. And once again, she is clapping back at the haters. But this time, it's with "nothing but love."

The "Modern Family" actress, who has dealt with an array of hate from bullies over the past year, took to Instagram on Sunday to emphasize to her fans "how important self-acceptance is."

Nothing but love ❤️

"Those who say such harsh things on my Instagram, thank you for this opportunity — but the question I ask myself each time I read the mean comments is if this is how you talk to a stranger online, I can only imagine how cruelly you speak to yourself," Winter wrote in the post that has over 47,000 likes.

And unlike most celebs who fire back at their haters, the 17-year-old encouraged her bullies to love themselves.

"Stop the hate. Accept all that you are and know your flaws are what make you the PERFECT you," she said. "I love my fans and I love my bullies for what they truly NEED is love. Take the high road, there is less traffic. XO."

Preach it, girl!

And this isn't the first time the "Dog Years" star has silenced haters with a body positive message. Back in June, after wearing a racy, keyhole cutout dress that emphasized her bust, Ariel told her bullies that they need to start embracing all bodies.

"Dear sorry body-shamers, I looked HOT in that dress. And if you hate it, don't buy it. But please get a hobby. XOXO Ariel #EmbraceYourBody," she wrote on Twitter.

So haters, once again, can we just let the girl live?! Thanks.
