Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

    Man I got a lot of them.

    1. Free will isn’t real.
    2. I’m kind of OK with AI replacing our jobs under capitalism, even if things get bumpy because I think because its unsustainable for various reasons and it’ll eventually cause economic collapse and we might live in a better society afterward.
    3. Nuanced “soft” Anti-natalism
    4. Currency is fine. The left was wrong about Crypto.
    5. He might not always be right but Vaush is funny and its OK to watch his streams.
    6. We should all fuck each other more and monogamy is retarded.
    7. Oh also its OK to call things and people “retarded”
    8. Virtue doesn’t matter only consequences.
    9. Bisexuality is secretly more common than hetero & homosexuality.
    10. Religion and spirituality should be illegal.
    11. Autistic people should rule the world.
    12. That Trump won a second time reflects a fundamentally disgusting moral weakness in most of humanity that I will never emotionally recover from.
    13. Linux is good but most of Linux users ideology about GUI is awful.

    Being fat is a choice the vast majority of the time, and I have a huge bias against big people.

    I used to be fat (250ish lbs (110ish kg) at 5’8"ish (172ish cm)), and as much as I would like to blame my shit on anything else, the person feeding me, the person sitting at the computer for hours, the person actively avoiding all physical activity was me and no one else. After I got diagnosed with some weight related shit, I turned my entire life upside down, am at a much healthier 150 lbs (68ish kg), and feel so much better, both physically and mentally.

    I’m aware of my bias, and I make every active effort to counter it in my actual dealings with bigger people. Especially because there are certain circumstances, however rarely, where it may not actually be their fault. But I’d be lying if I said my initial impression was anything except “God, what a lazy, fat fuck.”

    Edit: Added metric units

    People who are strongly against nuclear power are ignorant of the actual safety statistics and are harming our ability to sustainably transition off fossil fuels and into renewables.

    Pansexual, polysexual, and omnisexual are all microlabels and are all subsets of bisexual. You don’t need more labels than gay, straight, and bi.

    Edit: I forgot about asexuals. But I specifically only care about bi subsets. They’re dumb, and you only need bi
