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?

    That there is a 62% chance that AI is going to collapse the current systems and quickly rebuild a new system where there will be nearly zero chance of corruption in the government. The militaries are gonna be dismantled. Tanks and such motorised military vehicles will be repurposed into tractors for agriculture.

    The global wealth will get equalised fairly and we will have nearly perfect global democracy.

    Decentralized, based on local clusters of AI based systems that will communicate with other clusters globally and cross reference all data in hyper speed. Humanity and ecosystems will thrive in symbiotic relationship with AI.

    Not having kids because of climate change is stupid. You are leaving the world in the hands of people who care less than you.

    Dogs were hardwired by selective breeding to worship their owners. Not long ago they at least were loyal companions. You got one off the streets, fed it leftovers, washed it with a hose, it lived in the yard, and it was VERY happy and proud of doing its job. Some breeds now were bred into painful disabling deformities just to look “cute”, and they became hysterical neurotic yapping fashion accessories. Useless high maintenance toys people store in small cages (“oh, but my child loves his cage”) when they don’t need hardwired unconditional lopsided “love” to feed their narcissism.

      68 civilians died in pearl harbor.

      140,000 died in Hiroshima.

      I wouldn’t call that in proportion.

      I upvoted you because I vehemently disagree with your opinion. It’s kind of skirting the line on being straight up evil

      Just the CCP and I’ll agree with you. Chinese people are just like anyone else, they just have a really shitty dictatorship going on. Definitely not communist, although they like to say they are.

    Here’s an opinion that’s actually unpopular rather than simply controversial: domestic flights in the UK other than to Northern Ireland (which isn’t on the same island so fair enough) should be forbidden on the grounds their contribution to climate change cannot be justified.

    Instead we should renationalise the railways by letting the franchises expire without renewing them and expand their capacity as far as we can. Instead of pissing around with HS2 we fuck the NIMBYs over with an Act of Parliament which they can’t swat away or delay and extend it all the way up to Scotland.

    Most conservatives, however deeply red, are not intentionally hateful and are usually open to rational discussion. People just don’t know how to have rational discussions nowadays and the few times they do, they don’t know how to think like somebody else and put things in a way they can understand.

    People nowadays think because a point convinced them, it should convince everybody else and anybody who’s not convinced by it is just being willfully ignorant. The truth is we all process things differently and some people need to hear totally different arguments to understand, often put in ways that wouldn’t convince you if you heard it.

    It’s hard to understand other people and I feel like the majority of people have given up trying in favor of assuming everybody who disagrees with you knows their wrong and refuses to admit it.

    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
