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?

    Some (not so unpopular) unpopular opinions :

    • Most clichés about people happen to be true. I won’t give any example.
    • Smart Electronics altered our mental health mostly in a bad way.
    • Porn should be banned.
    • Big trillionaire corporations should not exist.
    • We should tend to a car free society

      if porn is banned then there’s no regulation for it, meaning when people inevitably set up illegal porn sites things like child porn and abuse are not off the table and will be much easier to find than right now. unless of course you want to implement mass survailance to make sure nobody’s watching, which is a violation of our human right to privacy.

        By that, I want to highlight how harmful it is in the long run. How to make people not watch it, honestly, I have no idea

          It’s like that for many vices such as alcohol- it’s harmful but banning it is much worse than regulating it (see the history of 1920s America). I’m not convinced porn consumption is harmful but even if it was, it shouldn’t be banned.

            My siblings in Christ just because you have an unhealthy relationship with porn doesn’t mean that everyone else does too. Stop projecting your problems into pathologizing everyone else.

      Not only car free but we should use tech to improve our cities and exist in balance with nature.

      We could start tomorrow if we didn’t have low consciousness humans running the planet.

      Right now it’s ridiculous how stupid everything is, I can’t even follow the news anymore. :)
