On This Instagram Page, People Share Unpopular Opinions And Here Are 50 Of The Most Polarizing Ones (New Posts)
Everyone is entitled to having their own beliefs. Some people keep them to themselves. Some like to blare them out every chance they get. And others have views so unconventional, they completely go against the status quo.
When not every opinion is greeted with open arms, we’re lucky to have the internet where we can spark a discussion with complete strangers. There’s an Instagram account dedicated to sharing some of the best posts from the popular subreddit called Unpopular opinion. From electric vehicles to stuffed animals, members of this community have something to say about virtually any aspect of life.
So get ready to dive into some of the best posts this account had to offer. Upvote the ones you agree with, and, if you want to stir some emotions, share your own disputable views in the comments below. Psst! After you’re done, be sure to check out Part 1 of this post right here.

I agree, too many times people feel entitled due to their age. You don't owe anyone anything. Congrats on the souvenir and the story you will be able to tell your friends and family.
In Finland, speeding tickets are income based. Just as an example.
Sometimes, we're discouraged from expressing our unpopular opinions because of the adverse reactions we might get from the people around us. Whether we’re talking about politics, religion, or popular culture, sharing our deepest beliefs can make someone feel pretty irritated.
However, while some end up scratching their heads from confusion, others see a like-minded person and gladly show their support in heated discussions. After all, a controversial point of view does not instantly mean that it’s uncommon. When you push your fears of being the odd one to the side, it’s much likely you'll encounter others sharing the same thoughts as you.
Brandwatch, a digital consumer intelligence company, was on a mission to investigate the most popular unpopular opinions on social media. They looked at consumers’ mentions from January 1 to June 30, 2020, excluding news, retweets, and shares. Results showed that 1.6M people shared their controversial beliefs in this period. Also, there were 34% more mentions during the lockdown compared to the four months prior.
Greed and narcissism... it's sad, but it's human nature. The majority of the people out there are fake as heck, and will do things like posting videos of themselves crying on the internet as PR moves, to help promote and enhance their brands, to help them gain those clicks, likes, follows, and subscribes. Even more sad is that there ARE the odd few out there who honestly have no one and no where else to turn to, and are using the internet to reach out. But those odd genuine few are usually buried and overshadowed by all the loud popular influencers out there, with their TikToks and viral videos and their memes.
Harassment is the right word. What happened to Diana and other famous people with the paparazzi actually haunting them, spying and giving no Fu*ks. But here's a thought: Who the hell buys those rag mag's is an accomplice bc if they stop buying that filth then the paparazzi will (nearly) go away or at least be way less.
When it comes to the topics people touch on, the top ones were about characters in pop culture, TV shows, dislike of fandoms, and books. People shared their complaints about some of the bestsellers of the century and aired their grievances about how some shows have become outdated. For example, 34K mentions called out Friends "for being hugely popular, despite some aspects not being acceptable today."
The researchers also looked into Reddit, where 958K users shared their gripes. "It seems like lockdown got to Reddit users, too. Posts to r/UnpopularOpinions increased 105%." They found that many of these mentions touched on things that happened on the platform itself. Most of them were focused on sports players, subreddits, and seeing change as not being good.
I read a quote before, wouldn't it be safer to fire blanks at someone than fire bullets at someone with a bullet proof vest
So while it can be fun to share your controversial views online, they also let others say opposing views, have heated discussions, and see things from different perspectives. Anna Akbari, P.hD., is a sociologist, writer, and speaker who shared her thoughts on why unpopularity isn’t necessarily a bad thing in a piece on The Psychology Today.
She explained that if we want to be happy, successful, and feel of service, we don’t actually need to appeal to the masses. "See, we’re complicated beings, each with our own unique experiences, full of biases and contradictions and, hopefully, a point of view," she wrote. "Having a point of view is a good thing, even when that view isn’t universally embraced."
You ruined it with "sure they're cute" because that's the whole point, they're NOT cute, people have just been trained into thinking they are. People need to realise that inbred dogs with serious health problems are the exact opposite of cute.
100% - the cheater is the one at fault - unless the people they cheated with is also someone who you have a relationship with then it's equal blame as they both owe you loyalty. I've never understood the blame being passed to the person they cheat with, and it's usually women who blame the other woman when their guy cheats - I sure there's a patriarchal link to all that that could be deciphered but seriously, they're just a shitty person if they knew he was involved with someone - if they didn't then they're just as much a victim in it all. This idea that men can't help themselves if offered sex has to stop - you don't accidentally have sex - yeah, you may regret it after but you totally know what you're doing while you're doing it.
While we can wholeheartedly stand by one issue, we can also not see eye to eye on another. "Agreeing to disagree on most things in life is fine—assuming it doesn’t restrict the liberty or human rights of others. It’s when we start to think that we need to agree on everything all the time to merely function together that we get into trouble," Akbari mentioned.
Needless to say, popularity isn’t essentially bad. Lots of things that are commonly and generally accepted by our society are considered as "safe". Akbari explained that we don’t have to immediately or categorically reject the popular stuff but rather "selectively embrace it, or at least occasionally challenge it."
Yes, it really should be free. I have been in therapy on and off for years and it has been free (/paid by taxes). It's due to mental health issues so free healthcare = free mental healthcare. I learned a lot and cope much better. I wish it was available to all who needs it. To hear that people live with anxiety, ptsd, depression etc and can't afford therapy to learn how to cope better is really, REALLY sad.
I don't use those sites anymore. If you want me to subscribe, or permit adverts in my ad blocker, or click a cookie thing every time, I just bounce. Enjoy your bouncerate and zero ad revenue. ALSO. PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD stop with the f*****g animated adverts. They drive my poor ADHD ass crazy. I can't stand it.
However, if your views are not clinging to the mainstream popular or if they tend to stir some unexpected or even rude reactions, "don't despair. You don’t need to bend toward conformity, and you may even be able to cash in—financially and socially—on stepping outside the conventional bounds."
She mentioned two rules that people who tend to lean into unpopularity should remember. The first one is that you should actually believe what you’re saying or doing. "Disagreeing for the sport of it is annoying and, rightfully, no one likes or respects you if you do that. So stop it," the sociologist advised.
In many cases I would agree but in many I would not. For example If an employee of mine turned out to be a KKK member, or they were videoed ridiculing a disabled person I would fire them without hesitation.
Retired teacher here, so let me weigh in on the realities. For elementary school kids, I'd overwhelmingly vote yes. Younger kids want to please the teacher; they want to be around the teacher, around other kids, in class. HOWEVER, as someone who taught middle and high school for 26 years, this does not work at all. By that time, there are a lot of kids who are looking for any way to leave the classroom. Yes, there are times they need to use the bathroom, but quite often they also want to socialize. There have been groups in certain years (not all by any means) that texted and met up in bathrooms and fought, too. It helps if a teacher has a sign in/out pass, or gives a certain number of tickets per month. Other children who don't have to use the bathroom COULD give a classmate a ticket if they felt generous.
"The second rule is to embrace your unpopular opinions with the knowledge and grace that not everyone shares your point of view," she continued. This rule can be quite tough since we humans have a general tendency to want others to agree with us. After all, it makes us feel heard and valued.
However, following this guideline "starts with a promise to both give up convincing other people to buy into your less popular opinions and to stop shaming them for their own thoughts and actions."
My previous boss (who was an absolute jerk!) used to say "there's a line of people waiting to take your place, if you quit." I did quite eventually. Seven years later and... my place is still unoccupied. And not just mine - two other people also quit from that office, and replacements could never be found. Or someone would start and then quit a month later due to the conditions. I guess the line of people for my spot turned out to be a bit too short ;)
Or, stop suing everyone for making mistakes. Yes there are serious negligence cases, but they're a lot less common than the cases where "negligence" is claimed, but it's just an honest mistake. Americans really need to stop that s**t.
We have to get rid of the phrase "unskilled labour". A janitor needs practical skills far above average (at least a good one does), and the working conditions of courier drivers or fastfood workers require a great deal of stamina and resilience. In any job you can go from beginner to master, working your job better or faster. Even more important, the economy absolutely depends on the jobs we tend to call "unskilled". Usually, in any company, if a middle manager is absent for some days, work continues more or less as usual. If the cleaning lady is absent, you notice the problems after a day or two the latest.
After that, it’s all about trusting yourself. If you believe that some things are just not right, don’t be shy and share your views with others because, chances are, there are people out there just like you. According to Akbari, there is value in dissent. "There’s often truth at the fringes and insight in unpopular perspectives. Greatness comes neither from blindly following nor from knee-jerk rejecting."
"Many of our greatest historical figures held really, really unpopular opinions. They did stuff that made people cringe or even retaliate against them. Going against the grain takes guts. And that courage is admirable, even if we disagree with what they’re saying or doing—but only when executed with integrity from a place of personal honesty," she wrote.
If you don't trust your partner, then you don't trust your own choice of partner.
But why does someone should have to give up on their privacy in order to show trust. Like, one thing is not related to the other. If any, your statement could also be: if you trust your own choice of partner, you shouldn't feel the need to snoop on their phone

I was married to a man for 14 years that cheated me a lot and I never went through his phone. My current husband is amazing and I don't go through his phone either. If you feel the need to check someone's phone then the problem lies with you!
I frequently ask to borrow my fiance's phone because his is usually better/I don't have mine on me/his is closer and I need to look up something quickly. He is fine with that because he has nothing to hide and he trusts that I won't go snooping. I have my partner's finger print saved to my phone and he knows how to unlock it so he can use it to check something for me while I am driving, and I am fine with that for the same reasons. Respect each other's right to some privacy, but if you're uncomfortable with your partner seeing what's on your device you need to address some issues.
My partner and I know each others passwords because sometimes that is just easier. Like driving and pulling up the map for directions, I can grab my husband's phone and use his if mine is not with me or mine has a low battery. I don't look at his private messages cause I don't feel I need to. We don't hide anything from each other, we don't snoop on each other, so we don't worry about each other knowing each other's passwords.
Maybe not early in a relationship. Married, I would gladly show it all. No secrets is key to trust. Can also lead to some awkward conversations - so have those up front. When we were dating, I would sometimes meet old friends who knew my wife in college. They would try to start trouble bringing up past stories of stuff. I got to laugh because I knew it already.
I agree with that. You are allowed privacy in a relationship. That being said, i borrow my husbands phone sometimes (because the camera on mine is broken so only to take pictures) and if he would be defensive about that I would question it. But I would never borrow it to "check" on him. I have no interest in that.
Where the hell is this a norm!? I will borow my husband phone only to ring my own if I can't fond it. Or I answer his phone when his brother or sister are calling to let them know he will call them back when he us FREE. Never have I used his phone to look through his massages of phone log. And vise vera.
Its kids today who are scarred you open up to text some one and see their last text was s**t talking you or making plans to cheat lol. Peronsally I don't care now if some one asks to see it every day and check my borring as hell history to be "safe" then that is red flag. But most the time its people going "well some things might be taking out of context on my phone..." Its like um I am dude unless you cheating on me and its on that phone plain to see I don't care, you can have porn on that s**t and I would look but mostly to see what is ok for me to bring up not to judge you but go "oh ok so I can bring that thing up now tonight!"

This is one of those weirdest paradoxes in a relationship the less your partner is to breach your privacy the more you're likely to trust them with your privacy.
Yeah, the whole point is not that "trust is letting your partner see everything", but rather: "trust is not feeling the need to check on your partner and snoop". And yes, NORMALIZE HAVING SECRETS. It's perfectly fine not wanting your partner to read every conversation you have with your friends! Sometimes I discuss things like our relationship, venting, asking friends for advice, or they tell me things in private. The real trust isn't in that I should show my partner all of that - it's in my partner trusting me enough to not want to see and know everything.
My husband and I know each other's phone pass code, but we don't ever touch each other's phone. If he needs to use my phone for any reason, he always asks me first and vice versa.
I agree. We're not the same person just for being in a relationship, and I still need my privacy and space. Like with any friendship or parent-child relationship or romantic relationship, both sides need their space.
Oooh! Touchy subject for many, but I agree - parents shouldn't be going through their kids phones. Unless there was a big beach of trust - like you caught your kid doing drugs - their private conversations are none of your business.

I have no need to check my OH's phone because I trust him, and vice versa.
I work with sex/porn addicts. They are not “bad”, they are addicted. Regardless, they cause massive harm to the partners who have trusted them. If they are able to stay together, the phone privacy issue is a done deal… it will never again be something they can justify needing. If they don’t stay together, it will not be something the future mate of that betrayed partner can require. What I have to ask, in a committed relationship, how much privacy should be needed? What is in your texts, your emails, your insta, your bank records, that your life partner shouldn’t see? You needing all sorts of privacy there is a good reason you shouldn’t have it.
On social media you see young couples filming themselves asking their partners for their phones. When they hand it over they all be saying 'see, my baby loves me'. What a load of absolute crap. Most of these relationships feel like a hostage situation. You have to show me your phone, you have to take calls in front of me, you can't like a picture on social media for God's sake. You would better off being single. I can't deal with all that shite.
I agree. As someone who used to be the one obsessed with checking my boyfriend's phone or my ex husband's emails because they were untrustworthy and shady, it's much preferable to be alone than be in a relationship where you feel paranoid and crazy. Because I now have trust issues I haven't been in a relationship in 5 years. Not fair to bring that baggage into another relationship until I can resolve it.
I could argue the opposite. If you trust your partner and vice versa, why would you have a problem with them looking? There's a difference between privacy and secrecy. Privacy is closing the bathroom door when you're taking a dump. Secrecy is closing the bathroom door so no one knows what you're doing.
All I’d see on my partner’s phone are message to his D&D group and his brothers. My iPad (I do have a phone, it’s a new 3310 and no idea where it is) is even worse, endless fanfic notes and pictures of cute animals that I’ve already sent him. Though research for the aforementioned notes does mean there’s some strange things in my search history.
I do a lot for my wife online, on her phone etc, and that includes setting up accounts. That menas I know all her passwords. So when something needs to be done, she is always just do it. My response is always, "Do I have your permission to log in as you?" We trust each implicitly and would never try to break that trust by logging into anything of hers without knowledge or permission. It's called common courtesy.
Why would you have your passwords displayed on your phone for all to see.
Hubby and I have been together for 37 years, We don't snoop into each others phones or e-mails, there is no requirement for it. But there is always a requirement for trust.
I'd never ask that, and I was stunned when a guy I was dating showed me his entire camera roll and a group chat he had with friends.. my first reaction was wondering if I'd done or said something that would prompt him to show me there was "nothing to hide". Looking away whenever someone opens a personal page on a laptop, enters a password or accepts a call/message etc is still my primary reaction. Plus, if someone really has something to hide they know better than to leave it in plain sight.
I value my independence and free will, and I wouldn't ever give away my passwords to a partner. That doesn't mean I don't trust them, or love them. It just mean that my things are mine, and their things are theirs, and we can live side by side, love eachother, and still keep our independence! They don't own me just because we're together, and I don't own them. It's a partnership, not an ownership.
I never opened any mail addressed to my husband when we were married. When he died, I found several pieces of my mail from social security in his stuff.
It works for some people, it was never a demand, but after 12 years together it just kind of happened naturally that we passed our phones back and forth and passwords.
My wife and I have never asked to see each other's phones. We've been together for 18 years.
This. My ex gf would offer me her phone and tell me I could go through it if I wanted. And get confused when I said I didn't need nor want to. Then get mad that mine had a passcode lock screen. Unless you're paying my phone bill you don't get to snoop through my phone.
if i'm doing something shady, talk to me about it.. cuz 95% of the time... i probably dont mean to be shady and im jsut clueless.
I have always felt that way and said it. My hubby and I don't go through each other's phones. I've never went through anyone's phone. No one should feel they need too
I am more disturbed by how big a deal it is, itsl ike "hey mine is dead I need to call or text some one," They look at you like your insane "uh no you can't see this," See f*****g what I jsut need to text my mom you do it then "umm you just can't see my text history," I don't want to... What the hell is on that phone your so scared about people seeing? Only reason mine has a lock was because I was a nanny for a while and I didn't want toddlers on my phone saw them buy an app on their mothers Ipad for some game once lol Otherwise I don't care nothing on my phone is a secret, now my pc that is password locked :P
I really agree with this as I am very possessive of my phone (seems to be a common trait among the autistics in my family) and hate people looking in it without my permission. But I don't have anything to hide.
I don't think it is a norm in relationships to let the partner look through your phone or give them your social media passwords. For what? Sure I sometimes get my fiancès phone but only cause he has a flatrate and I not. So I use it to phone. He said from himself it was ok. I would never look through it. For what? We are partner, we trust each other. The only interesting things on our phones or tablets are the games.
I feel like this one is more subjective; it all depends why they want to see your phone. If they're going through your private stuff without asking, that IS a breach of trust and boundaries need to be communicated and respected.
I don't know anyone who has a healthy relationship that does this! I think it might be more a cultural thing in America perhaps, but I really don't think it's that common in the U.K.
My husband has full access to my phone and I do as well to his. THAT is trust. We have nothing to hide from each other. My phone is dead or charging and I want to look something up? I use his. And vice versa. However with saying that, starting something new, yes, I value my privacy until I know I can trust you.
my partner tells me his passwords cause he always forgets them lol but I don't look through his stuff 1 I trust him 2 it's like going through someone's brain and 3 most probably be boring lol
First (of many) that comes to mind: some secrets aren't yours too share. Like, your friends might text you some private stuff, discuss their problems - that's none of your partners business and you should actively prevent them from knowing things your friends tell you in confidence.

If you need to check the phone or whatever the relationship is already broken. Either they did cheat, and you have a problem. Or they didn't cheat and you ARE the problem. But either way, it's not going to work.
Checking someone's phone 'incase they are cheating' or anything else is not the way a healthy relationship works. I was pleased to see this was one of the things mentioned in the anti-domestic violence (coercive control) ads running in Australia recently.
None of your business. Never ask. If you do You're GONE. That being said, my wife has access to all my devices and me to hers. WHY? Well, sometimes we can fix issues on each other devices we are both skilled in. Also, if I die tomorrow, I want her to have access to anything she might possibly need.
Weird. I’ve often shared phones with my husband. I can trust him to not invade my privacy and vice versa. I’m fine with others not doing this but I wouldn’t be with anyone I couldn’t trust this way.
If my wife or girlfriend demanded to see my phone so that she could check who I was calling, yes, that would demonstrate an annoying lack of trust. But if I said no, that would demonstrate that I was talking to someone I didn't want her to know about. I think there's a healthy amount of jealousy and ridiculous levels of jealousy. If you see your girlfriend kissing another man, I think it's perfectly fair to want to know who he is and why she's kissing him. (Like if it's her brother, different than if it's her other boyfriend.) But following her around all day watching who she meets and where and when, constantly checking her phone, and checking how many miles she put on her car today, is over the top and a problem.
While people should not be obligated to share their phone with partners but if you or your partner has something to hide there is problems.
To see my phone, you have to come in my front door, up the stairs, turn into the dining room and face the south wall. But if it’s really that important…….!
The fact a partner would even feel entitled to strip u of ur personal privacy probably indicates their own deep-seated anxiety and sense of inadequacy. Therefore the fact this would even come up between u and ur partner likely means the relationship has more issues within it than an intrusive phone-screening “policy” could fix
It shows that your partner doesn’t trust you if they want to see what’s on your phone.
Social media passwords?! I mean my partner knows my phone key, though she'd never just go look through it, but social media passwords? Yikes. Don't have anything to hide, but a partner asking for that would be a huge red flag.
I have the password to my partner's phone and email, and vice versa - we've never used it as we have no need to. We love and trust one another.
My husband and I don't check each other's phones or iPads etc, but we do use each other's every so often, like if mine dies or I've forgotten it at home etc. I don't feel the need to go through anything, but if he got really cagey and refused to let me touch it I'd get suspicious, and he would too if I suddenly didn't want him touching mine. I don't think refusing to hand your phone over on the principle that they should trust you is any healthier than feeling the need to check up on your phone. To me, trust is being open with each other - if my husband wanted to flick through my phone I don't care, he'd be bored in minutes at all the drivel I talk to my mates, the million memes I've saved and one word texts from my children
My partner and I use each others phones all the time. If however, he was the kind of person demanding to see what I've been up to, I would have serious reservations about his personal motivations for not trusting me
I don’t think it’s normal, is it? I’ve never had this with any guy - apart from one very controlling one.
There's a difference between privacy and secrecy. Privacy is closing the bathroom door when you take a dump. Secrecy is closing the bathroom door because you don't want anyone to know what you're doing. I let my husband look at my phone whenever he wants. Why? Because I ain't got nothing on there that I don't want him to know. I look at his phone as well and he doesn't have a problem with it either.
On the other hand, I'd think it's weird to *not* share your phone with your marriage partner. My wife has my phone passcode and I have hers, and it's not a big deal, she doesn't snoop around on my phone and I don't snoop around on hers, but she can read anything on my phone and I wouldn't care.
I trust my partner, and that is why i do not mind her using my phone of she needs to. I know anything she might see will be kept as if it were myself.
So, you don't trust your partner with your phone/passwords, but they are the ones who don't trust you? Doesn't compute. Either way, my husband and I don't share social media passwords, because... why would you? But we can unlock each other's phone, in case there's an emergency. We never look through each other's phones though. We don't have anything to hide, so we don't feel the need to check phones.
mmm why are your social media private, what are you trying to hide? I think you are in the wrong relationship
We switched my kid to a Montessori school because they got to 6th grade and there was no AP option so they were just sitting there bored. It costs a good bit, but I have no reason to think public schools will be better for my kid than they were for me.
I'll probably be downvoted, but this also applies to the African American label. Your distant ancestors were from Africa,you were born in the US therefore you are American. You don't hear people of Asian or African ancestrysaying they are Chinese English or Ghanian Scottish,they are English or Scottish or just plain British.
Well this is obvious, it also applies to many of the "50 years of driving and no accidents" type people... Yes Mrs Miggins, but only because everyone has done such a good job of avoiding your ass
I swear a lot, but it's very very rarely AT someone. I'm not doing it to offend people, it just comes out :P
Jeans and hoodies get washed maybe once a month (or three) unless something has got on them. You don't need to smell like washing powder, and constantly washing everything is bad for you, your clothes, your bank account, and the planet. End of discussion, downvote me all you like I think you know by now I don't give a s**t.
My husband and I have slept in separate rooms for over 10 years (due to his loud snoring keeping me awake). We are very happy together and have no real problems in our relationship - we just both like a decent night sleep. People assume that we aren’t intimate and/or that our whole relationship is falling apart, which couldn’t be further from the truth.
It's not brave it's natural. This if my face. Don't like it. Screw off
Yup. I've been a passenger while the driver just drove around and around waiting for one of the "good" spots to become available. Finally I said, "If we had just parked in one of the far spots right away, we would have been inside the store by now."
Urgh. My ex-husband used to say that all the time especially during arguments. "No one cares" or "no one feel that way". Well, I do. You can't decide on what to care about or feel based on your feelings and use that as the only truth. Blah.
They say money doesn't buy happiness, but I think this is it...this is the happiness money can buy.
I feel like the human approach to "what to do with the waste/recycling of electric vehicles" will (and probably is) treated similar to the problem of what to do with nuclear waste, and unfortunately, our approach seems to be to sweep it under the rug and let future generations figure it out.

Unpopular opinion: almost none of these posts are unpopular opinions or controversial in any way
Yep, kinda signing off most of them. Basic common sense of human decency.

Unpopular opinion: people are getting so trigger-happy about calling people Karens that it's making more docile people afraid to speak up, especially women. I've never heard the word 'entitled' get thrown around like it has until recently. It's getting to the point that people are saying someone is entitled just because they did something that was a slight inconvenience to them. If that's not entitled, I don't know what is.
I agree. Some people (men and women) act "like a Karen". But nowadays its used mostly to harass women everytime that they are assertive

Nah I think a lot of these are pretty uncontroversial and some are really arbitrary. I think the person is targeting more conservative people, or just trolling (like the one about juice).
I have an unpopular opinion. I don't think anyone should be able to have pets or babies until they have passed significant psychological testing. I don't care about rich or poor. Some people should never be allowed to have responsibility for other living beings. If I ran the world, I'd be very unpopular, because I would be a terrible dictator and not tolerate most of the s**t that goes down in the world.
Well, we do license for driving but not parenting...

Unpopular opinion: BoredPanda reposting Instagram that is reposting/stealing Reddit. How deep can we go?
I don't understand why these are considered unpopular opinions I agree with almost everyone
You want something unpopular? I love human much more than I like animals. And pets. It doesn't mean that I dont like animals, or that I will harm them. But if I have to chose between a human an an animal, human will always come first. And I'll strongly judge you if you don't do the same.
Well, the top part of the list were again not unpopular opinions. The extended list was pretty lame. Not sure why I read to the end.
Unopoular opinion: men and women being half naked/in tiny outfits and dancing “sexy” on TikTok shouldn’t be allowed. Want likes and maybe money for looking like that and doing sexy things? Fine. Make an OnlyFans account. TikTok is used by SO many kids and they should not be watching that. I’m so afraid of my bf’s 8 yearold niece seeing a - way too - skinny girl in a bikini dancing sexy and getting thousands of likes, and thinking “that’s what I need to look like. But I don’t, so I wont ever get that many likes and nobody will ever like me!” And the same for young boys, for that matter. Both the “girls should look like that or nothing will do!” or “I don’t have a six-pack like him, so no woman will ever like me!”
Calling out a brand, business or company on something they are doing that is fraud, like for example, randomly adding extra data and thus money onto your internet bill, gets people called as Karens all the time. And these scammers get off scot free. They don't cancel your plan, when they were the ones calling you every week when you weren't a subscriber. They don't cancel or change your plan back to what it was unless you call them five times.
People commend Poland for taking in so many Ukranian refugees - yet African, Indian and literally any non-white students in Ukraine were restrained at the border, some were even beaten and abused. Poland doesn't need to be glorified for doing what is expected of them as human decency.
So this time BP copied an instagram account that copied reddit instead of copying reddit directly
I’m smiling and shaking my head at the fact that the hockey puck post was upvoted the most (of all topics discussed). Does this means that’s it’s the least polarizing of all the polarizing posts? Maybe the one thing we can all stand united on is that if we witness someone catch a ball or hockey puck at a game, we celebrate their win and let them keep it, guilt-free? 😁

Unpopulair opinion: Bubble tea is a waste of space and only popular because people say it's popular.
This s**t is nothing new. The hard reality is that people have been highlighting and pointing out and attempting to make better some of these issues for decades but the younger generation is just into calling them “boomers” and thinking that their revelations are new if unique snd the world needs to bend to their will. I get why customers are pissed office, some have good reason to be pissed off. Hell, how difficult is it to do your job with integrity?? BP is loaded with threads on what doesn’t work, what’s wrong and how things “should be”. It’s a hard lesson to learn that the world works for the ultra wealthy, not the little guy, yes it’s been getting worse, thank the GOP (the party of fear, gaslighting and greed). You want to make a difference, then invest in the work its going to take instead of being a huge part of the problem. Whining and bitching without learning what it takes to change things, just dismissing a whole generation IS A HUGE PART OFTHE PROBLEM!!!
If the gop is so greedy why is it liberals spending all the money?

Right? From misogyny to contradiction s, to plain old lack of critical though, what a waste of time.

No it isn't. Most of us appreciate other cultures. They aren't the same thing.
Load More Replies... Unpopular opinion: almost none of these posts are unpopular opinions or controversial in any way
Yep, kinda signing off most of them. Basic common sense of human decency.
Load More Replies... Unpopular opinion: people are getting so trigger-happy about calling people Karens that it's making more docile people afraid to speak up, especially women. I've never heard the word 'entitled' get thrown around like it has until recently. It's getting to the point that people are saying someone is entitled just because they did something that was a slight inconvenience to them. If that's not entitled, I don't know what is.
I agree. Some people (men and women) act "like a Karen". But nowadays its used mostly to harass women everytime that they are assertive
Load More Replies... Nah I think a lot of these are pretty uncontroversial and some are really arbitrary. I think the person is targeting more conservative people, or just trolling (like the one about juice).
I have an unpopular opinion. I don't think anyone should be able to have pets or babies until they have passed significant psychological testing. I don't care about rich or poor. Some people should never be allowed to have responsibility for other living beings. If I ran the world, I'd be very unpopular, because I would be a terrible dictator and not tolerate most of the s**t that goes down in the world.
Well, we do license for driving but not parenting...
Load More Replies... Unpopular opinion: BoredPanda reposting Instagram that is reposting/stealing Reddit. How deep can we go?
I don't understand why these are considered unpopular opinions I agree with almost everyone
You want something unpopular? I love human much more than I like animals. And pets. It doesn't mean that I dont like animals, or that I will harm them. But if I have to chose between a human an an animal, human will always come first. And I'll strongly judge you if you don't do the same.
Well, the top part of the list were again not unpopular opinions. The extended list was pretty lame. Not sure why I read to the end.
Unopoular opinion: men and women being half naked/in tiny outfits and dancing “sexy” on TikTok shouldn’t be allowed. Want likes and maybe money for looking like that and doing sexy things? Fine. Make an OnlyFans account. TikTok is used by SO many kids and they should not be watching that. I’m so afraid of my bf’s 8 yearold niece seeing a - way too - skinny girl in a bikini dancing sexy and getting thousands of likes, and thinking “that’s what I need to look like. But I don’t, so I wont ever get that many likes and nobody will ever like me!” And the same for young boys, for that matter. Both the “girls should look like that or nothing will do!” or “I don’t have a six-pack like him, so no woman will ever like me!”
