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.
Totally agree - I know someone very well off who views parking fines as just an extra payment for convenience of parking where ever they feel like it
I heard a story that in dubia, when a rich business man gets a ticket/fine the amount is only 6 Dirham (a little over 1.5 dollars) But inorder to pay this fine he/she needs to go to 6 different government offices each with long waiting times. The point is to make the business man waste 6 days and not allow him to do any oter work in those days costing them a lot of money (much more than what a regular fine would've cost them) (probably untrue but still amusing to think about)
In Denmark they will take the car, if you drive twice the speed limit or 100 km/h above the speed limit. One guy had just bought a Lamborghini in Germany and was testing it on his way to Norway (driving above 250 km/h I believe). Got caught, and now doesn't have a Lambo any more..
I agree with this. If someone is going to be so reckless with other people's lives them they don't deserve to keep noce things

Yes please!! This makes me think about s**t like Kendall Jenner constantly parking in handicapped spots and yelling at the people who record it as if they're the ones doing something wrong (this happened more than once). She just pays the ticket which is pocket change to her. More than 1 ticket and she should lose her license for a year. For people drunk and/or disorderly, instead of jail where they're treated like celebs, maybe they have to work a week in the restaurant, or wherever they caused the problem on top of the fine. They have to be the ones to repaint, they have to clean the mess, etc. Some judges will do this but it needs to be more intensive and not just baby slaps. Make it an inconvenience. Make them lose time. That's what matters. Make them work the job. Make them think twice next time. If people were forced to work the job for a few weeks at the place they were causing such a problem, s**t would be so different.
Yes. The millionaires should pay enough to make them wonder if they can eat for the next few months.
Wow that sucks a**e. In australia you lose demerit points as well. The worse the offense the more demerits lost. You can't buy those back. If you lose your licence you have to wait to get it back like everyone else (possibly with other punishments tacked on)

In the Yucatán, Mexico, a fine is posted as being "so many times" your daily salary.
An average-income woman started dating a man who came from a very wealthy family. The type that had had obscene amounts of money his entire life. When going out to eat he parked his car illegally. When she pointed this out to him, he simply said: "It's not illegal, just more expensive." Not being smug about it, not showing off, it was just part of his normal life because he could afford it.
This is so logical that I don't understand it's not everywhere. A 100 dollar fine is barely small change for wealthy person. For others it can mean not having food on the table or making rent.
In Switzerland, traffic violations are fined according to one's income.
"Day fines" they're called. A lot of countries do it. It's still not perfect, because a day's wage for someone struggling still impacts a lot more than a day's wage for someone who's comfortable, but it's a damn sight better than the BS we have now.
I tend to agree. When I was in my 20s I once got a $200 speeding ticket. I wasn't making much money then and that was very difficult to pay. If I got a $200 ticket today it would be a pain but not devastating. And there are people who make millions who could easily afford it, who would be perfectly happy to just mail the police department $200 a day in exchange for a sticker saying they can drive as fast as they want.
But, but, but that might make the rich have to take some sort of responsibility for their actions?
Fines should also be better scaled to the potential impact of the offense. When I was in the UAE speeding fines jumped considerably for every 20Km over the speed limit and running a red light was one of the most costly fines I knew of. If I remember correctly it was approximately $1K U.S..
There are countries that do this. It makes so much more sense. For someone with low income, a parking ticket of $50 can be really difficult to accommodate. For someone who makes 6 figures, it's nothing. I honestly believe that we could eradicate income tax completely and replace it with a spending tax, where luxury items had very high taxable price (plane, yacht etc) and everything that had a financial penalty was per income.
Excellent idea. Of course, TPTB will never allow any of it, but this plan would be near perfection.
Load More Replies... These are the only two "fair" options for me: 1. Everybody gets the same price or 2. It's based on the intensity (something like vandalism can have varying degrees. But, I don't think it should be based on income. People can too easily lie about this. Plus, some people have multiple incomes. There's so many nuances.
Standard fines penalize the poor unfairly. A 200-dollar ticket is a punishment to a middle-class person and a pittance to a wealthy person, but a poor person is going to go without something vital. They are going to take weeks to get back on track. That's just wrong. I'm one hundred percent on board with income-based fines and penalties.
This is exactly the way fines wok in Finland where I live. Fines are set on a “points-scale” and that’s the same for everyone, but the value of the “points” are a certain % of what you earn… the idea is that fines should be felt “with the same harshness for everyone”
If you are a millionaire then you owe $2,000....and if you are not your fine is $20....even steven
I can already hear the American keyboard warriors shouting about socialism...
Please don't generalize. I'm an American, and I love this idea.

"When the punishment for a crime is a fine, it's only a crime for the poor" -or something like that
In Colombia, it's done by one week's/one month's, etc. salary or wages.
In many countries this js actually actually case, at least in Europe. This means people jn the poorest sector often deliberately avoid paying their tickets cuz the cost of the fine is more convenient
I completely disagree. Same crime, same punishment. If someone comes from a disadvantaged background, and they kill someone, should they receive a lesser sentence because of their historical/social/economic disadvantages? No way. I also don't think the wealthy or famous should get off easy, however, which they often do.
If we were to worry more about taxing the fück out of the rich and large corporations the way they deserve, instead of making middle and lower income people and small business pay so much in taxes while rich people and large megacorps pay NOTHING, this particular discussion wouldn't even be on the table.
Just waiting for some yahoo to come along and suggest that people of lower income's safety isn't worth as much lol.
Even making the fine a proportion of income doesn't apply equal stress to a rich person and a poor person. If you're living paycheque to paycheque a fine will affect your ability to feed or house yourself, whereas if you're earning a lot more it will affect when you can buy your next nice thing, those are definitely not equal stresses.
Only problem is, the fines increase because costs increase to impose them. It's like minimum wage goes up, so prices increase for everything. Poor guy is still making essentially the same crappy wage because he has to pay the higher price. We pay the increase and the business doesn't lose a dime, and in many case, shows a profit. Check out Starbucks incredible profit they made during the pandemic. Employees didn't get a cut. They got a thank you note.
I read a story about a guy who parked in no parking zones all the time. When his friend said somethinng, he replied. "It's only a $400. fee" 'Fee'?!?!
this is why I prefer equity over equality; true equality isn't fair
So, treat everyone equal under the law except people with money? Eff those guys. I prefer, cant do the time or pay the fine, dont commit the crime. Oh, and every single local court allows you to make your own payment schedule. "I can pay 10 bucks a month for the next 2 years." Thay accept that. Just dont miss that payment.
Where I live the fine money does not go to the city, it goes to the province. I do agree that it should be based on income, I've read stories of entitlement where someone had been told they can't park somewhere, fire lane, disabled parking, drop off only etc. and their response is you can it just costs $80, which is the cost of the ticket for doing it. Fines on tickets are supposed to be a punishment for doing wrong, like time out for children, but it's lost it's punishment factor when the person can easily afford to pay and considers the ticket just another bill related to the cost of living somewhere or a minor inconvenience.
That's something I've agreed with for ages and want in Scotland(the UK as a whole), I also think they should increase community service hours for repeat offenders. when somebody that repeatedly gets drunk & disorderly on weekends is given 250 hours of community service that can only be done on a Saturday they will quickly learn a lesson, the first night out they get when the C.S is finished will be spent responsibly drinking because they know if they mess up again they won't be able to enjoy a weekend out with friends for a long time.
When Bezos was getting one of his houses built (I think it was in London), he had to park on the street and would get daily fines of $200. He paid them without blinking an eye. He later said that he just considered the fines the price of parking.
on a post about the less obvious things that come with growing up poor, there was an entry that said some rich people view those offenses as legal, you just need to pay for them: unauthorized parking, speeding, littering, disorderly conduct, even DUIs, they're only stuff that come with a fee attached. So I 100% agree with this
My initial thought is that this is a great idea. But thinking about it more, that means someone with little money could kind of do anything and receive essentially no fines. So I think there should be some floor amount, which starts to increase after your income hits some minimum level.
i don’t have an opinion however I know on the east coast states give you a 6 month payment plan upon asking
In the US judges have discretion on fines. The infraction and risk created by a 20 over the limit is the same for a rich and poor offender are the same. Now a nucence like; noise, trash, etc ok.
There are two types of income, earned and unearned. In countries that base fines on income, it is often on earned income. The truly rich don't have any earned income, their wealth comes from unearned income. Quite often, the very rich earn nothing at all. While your idea sounds reasonable, you will just end up hurting lower and middle classes as usual and not the rich.
Yes, you'd have to base the fine off total net worth or something to get at the idea that people are trying to do here.

Don't break the law or speed and you won't have to pay a freaking fine.

Lots of countries (e.g. Germany, but AFAK most european countries) calculate monetary penalties (not minor fines, but court-ordered penalties) by daily rates - like, "I sentence you to 20 daily rates", if you earn 2000€ a day, that's 40 000€, if you are low income, maybe you get away with a few bucks.
Great idea until you realize.most crime including speeding isn't done by the wealthy.
Crime is evenly split across all income levels. Rich people break the law just as often as poor people, not more, not less.

This is so true. Cannot remember if it was on BP or reddit but there was a post about someone being friends with an extremely wealthy person whom had no concept that a fine was a fine it was just "the cost to do X". So parking in a no stopping zone didn't have say a $100 (or however much) fine in the wealthy person's mind to them "it only costs $100 to park there no biggie". Some of the Scandinavian/Nordic/European countries have fines based on value of the car which I also think is a great idea. Points off a licence only work if you do not have a chauffeur
Everybody's talking about the rich. But what about the poor. Especially the multiple offenders. A rich guy pays $1,000 for a fine the poor guy does the same thing and only pays 50. It should be by number of offenses regardless of income.
Why? What do you think the purpose of the fine is? What is the fine supposed to accomplish?

I think the punishment should be equal across the board. The rich don't deserve extra punishment for being rich. The punishment should fit the crime, so we shouldn't have people paying hundreds of dollars for a parking ticket just because they have more money.
Poor people then get more punishment because of the impact that dollar amount has on them. Two people who commit the same crime, but one has to skip meals or p**n items while the other feels absolutely no impact.

Load More Replies...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.
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

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.

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: 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 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.

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.

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!!!

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? 😁
Ieva ... been a fan of Bored Panda for many years. This is one of the best posts I've ever read! Thanks for sharing. - Ed Kelb -
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?
