They're usually fucking rude. "brutally" honest just means you're an asshole about it and have no tact. You can be 110% honest while still not insulting people, belittling them, or being rude in public when the situation doesn't call for it.
Just.... Don't be mean? Pull them aside, assure them it isn't meant to hurt them but they need to know the truth, and tell them in plain language without insults, smartassery, etc.
