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.
Why censor the word murder, not like we all can't figure out what it says, strange BP.
Im seeing this dumb censorship everywhere, even words like knife, stab, punch, blood - are people really that fragile?

I would add chemical castration for serial rapists as well to this.
No. Where in the world is there a criminal justice system accurate and unbiased enough that you'd be confident that forced sterilization would be applied fairly and justly 100% of the time? I live in the U.S., and our system definitely isn't that infallible.
this is why I'm against death penalty and the worse things in jail (Ps___ because there are so many innocents being convicted):
Load More Replies... This is way too extreme. The idea behind the law (in civilized countries, at least) is to reform criminals, not inflict vengeance upon them.
Too bad the American system doesn't reward criminals for their reformation but instead makes them outcasts in society...

My first thought is that this sounds totally reasonable but I'm afraid that actually putting it in practice may become a slippery slope. It sounds a bit like eugenics, honestly, and when the fascist Republicans take over again in the next election cycle I could totally see them taking something like this that started with the best intentions and turning it into something terrifyingly evil. Don't forget, in the US multiple states are currently passing laws that will make gender-affirming treatments to underage transgender children "child abuse" and will allow them to prosecute parents and healthcare providers. I'm sure many of them would love the opportunity to sterilize the parents of transgender children. Why stop there? Maybe they'll go ahead and sterilize the children too- just to be sure.
I was about to lay into you for the 'slippery slope' argument, but sadly you are right about the transgender issue and where it could lead. I used to work with social services. I knew families with 6+ kids who had well-documented histories of child abuse, and jail time for said abuse, who still somehow kept custody of these children. Maybe not permanent sterilisation, but one of those implant thingies that lasts a few years? Give the mum a break to sort herself out, if she can. Some people just really, truly, should not be parents.

In the U.S., it also costs taxpayers more than life imprisonment. There's zero reason we should still be using the death penalty.
Load More Replies... yes good so our abusive parents resents us even more when they get out of jail now they're even more dangerous take us for being responsible and now have no relief(if they're castrated) ._they should not have been parents in the first place, I don't mean not have children, but not take care of them (sure my father is abusive and has burnt my back and has killed my confidance in myself trust in others my future and has crippled me; but I was born to him ; I wouldn't be "alive
In those situations, it's assumed that the child was removed from the parent's home.

How can people be pro-death penalty but anti-abortion? It doesn't make sense.
I was a foster parent, having abused children in your home makes you recognize that forced birth control should be the minimum sentencing for abusive, neglectful parents. If the state has taken your child and you have lost your parental rights ( understanding that sometimes the state is wrong) you should be required to use birth control until you can prove that your ability to parent has changed. No one should have multiple infants removed at birth because their right to procreate trumps a child's right to not be born into that situation. I'm not sure how this can be evenly applied as women have many more options when it comes to long term birth control compared to men, but we need to figure that out. Foster care is a nightmare for more children in the system. The children in these systems are not thriving, they are surviving on top of the trauma they have already endured. We must do better and by stopping the influx of babies to known abusers.
Thank you. I have worked with social care, too, and you have put this so succinctly. A lot of people seem to think sterilisation is to stop the abuse, not to prevent abusers creating more victims. Not only do child abusers frequently make more children to replace those taken away, but that they don't even lose custody in the first place a lot of the time. Also, how is it 'reformation' to have another child and not abuse it? If someone already has multiple children they can bloody well do their repair work with one they've already made, rather than starting from scratch again.

Some offenders are sterilized as part of their plea deal. Not all and not frequently, but I remember reading about it. We have to be careful though. In ancient times Eunuchs (castrated men) were considered "safe" to be around the concubines, but many still had their parts fully functioning. For abusers, the thrill is power, not necessarily sex.
First, the death penalty is NOT legal in very many countries, or individual states in the U. S. Second, are you suggesting that forced sterilization would stop that individual from abusing children?
I don't support capitol punishment, but I do see some holes in this logic. Based on the idea that it protects society as a whole, killing a murderer prevents that person from murdering again. There isn't much research on sterilization affecting recidivism of child abusers so all that likely does is: Cost taxpayers even more money for an operation, cause pain an suffering to the offender, and likely do nothing to prevent him/her from reoffending. Mandated continuing therapy is my preferred alternative. Wait, that fits in with reformation and I live in USA, NVM ignore everything I said
Not everywhere in the world. We don't all have the death penalty. Some of us are more enlightened. I fail to see how justice can be construed as an "eye for an eye".
Which is why the death penalty shouldn't be legal either. Dismissing the fact that you qualified you post with "extreme" making it subjective, the truth is, you can be wrong. Death and sterilization are things you can't just say "oops" and undo.
if you can’t lock it up, we’ll lock it up for you.

Most people should be forcibly sterilized. In fact every little girl should be put on birth control from the first time they bleed until the point where they are finically secure, and emotionally prepared after having taken extensive parenting classes and proving they know what they're in for and how to actually deal with it. You need to be licensed or certified to do and endless number of things, but bringing new life into the world "eh, as long as you find someone that wants to f**k you, you'll figure it out!"
Death penalty is not legal in my country. So... no. This shouldn't be legal.
That's why civilized countries have abolished the death penalty. An eye for an eye only leaves us all blind.
Too many people who shouldn't breed do so. If you must pass a test in order to drive, why not for breeding too?
I agree. I worked with battered & abused kids for 5 years. We all felt this way. Some people should never be allowed to breed again. Most of our staff considered themselves liberals yet. It was for the sake of the children, not the freedom of inhumane parents.
I would go step further, if murder is punishable by death, rape is as sinister in my codex of morals. Sadly in my country, child rapist get 8 years at prison at most and can apply for parole (usually it works because inmates are bad for statistics). Thanks to EU privacy laws, there no no preditor lists.
I love this! I think the same applies to convicted and true rapists, and anyone who falsely accuses others of rape!
And these peop,e NEVER stop at 1 or 2 kids, its often 6 or 7 they cant and wont take care of... Oh but the adult has more rights than the child nearly being murdered 💁♂️
It is. Some people are clearly not paying attention. Chemical castration is used
We have a prohibition on 'cruel and unusual' punishments and I can't think of any body modifications that aren't considered cruel and unusual to use as punishment, with the sole exception of execution.
You should have a license to parent and I whole heartedly agree that if you abuse / neglect a child it’s automatically sterilization/no chance of adoption to anything living and jail.
How about pro life killing the doctors and nurses performing abortions. Early release and apathy at the futility of the old eye for an eye punishment. And the rich getting off while the poor get thrown in for stealing food. Where any one coming to help those who can't afford another baby and her doctor just got killed. Nowhere. So the baby may go through a horrible and painful life. There in lies the rub.
It should also be used in the case of rape! A rapist is usually found statistically to be a repeat offender, and should be treated as such!
Sterilization will not take away the urge of the criminal. It will probably make it worst as he/she wont be able to do what they want to
i dont think this solves the problem... its more about taking the person and locking away
I agree to a point. The definition of, 'Extreme child abuse' will be determined by different people and is subjective. One judge may determine that any physical contact with a child is abuse. Obvious cases of extreme physical or sexual abuse, sure, but the ones that aren't so obvious is where it gets tricky
Actually, here in the USA, there is a condition that the person or persons involved in cases of extreme child abuse are not allowed around children again. If they have another child, it is immediately taken away upon birth. The state can also, barring religious prohibition, require parolees to get a vasectomy or under the skin birth control. They've already been doing it as a condition of getting Welfare in some states.
I am against the death penalty, except for child abusers. You touch one kid, you're dead. Simple as.
I heard someone once say that the punishment for severe sexual assault should be castration. Kind of agree.
Chemical castration is a good solution for phedophiles and other sex offenders
There have been parents imprisoned for extreme child abuse. Only to later was it proved that the child had a disease or syndrome that was responsible for what appeared to be abuse.
Adults who abuse their children shouldn't be allowed to have any more.
In Australia they do chemically castrate such said people. If I had lived there, the monster that stole my innocence as a 4 year old girl would have paid that price. Instead, I bear the entire burden of his awful terrible sin.
My only problem here is "if". We don't have death penalty (Germany) and rightfully so, because it doesn't allow any margin for mistakes. Forced sterilization for known, repeated and severe child abuse would not raise my hackles at all
Any form of corporal punishment is disgusting should be shunned.
Death penalty is not a legal sentence everywhere. One thing we can rest assure is that the perpetrator may grow a clearer conscious and live with the atrocities he committed in his mind forever.
And chemical castration for domestic abusers.gentle em up like a fighty cat
Yes!!!! The people having the most kids are the ones who should t be having any!!! Crushes my soul seeing kids that don’t have a chance!!!
The death penalty is not used enough these days...and child abuse should be illegal instead of pandered to by some unmentionable people.
I vote for actual castration etc. Remove any sort of sexual hormones whatsoever.
For a start, the death penalty is disgraceful, so anything that starts with using it as an example is automatically not credible. If you don't think that this suggestion wouldn't be used against POC, you're not living in the modern world.
It sad in this world in time kids are not not safe. You have to keep a very close eye on them. For people who abuse their kids I don't think they should be allowed to be around kids or have anymore kids. On the news all you see now is a mother and a father or the mother's boyfriend killing a young child. It very sad very sad. I just setting here thinking what is wrong with these people. I love my children. I would never let a person harm them I watch them all like hawks. I know an eye for eye don't help but what are we suppose to do let it it go on. They just do it over an over again. Some people just don't care. They can use I was treated bad. But so was a lot of people and you don't see them killing their kids. You see being honestly trying to be the best parent they can be.
I think it should be for all child abuse not just extreme either that or chemical castration
Some parole boards have required sex offenders, who want to be paroled, to take sex-drive suppressant pills (and pass piss tests to prove that they really are taking them), as a condition they have to continually meet to not be sent back to prison. The paroled sex offenders who've done this have a noticeably lower rate of re-offending than other, similar paroled sex offenders.
Death should be the case for extreme child abuse and pedophiles. Period. Idgaf what you think.
Any kind of forced sterilization, regardless of original intent, reeks of eugenics and should be avoided (it's a slippery slope). Let's try to think of other ways of dealing with (and preferably also mitigating) child abusers. Lock them up if need be, get them mental health therapy, if need be, etc...
You can't rehab pedophiles the only cured ones are dead
Load More Replies... I feel the problem with legalized killing or sterilizing of anyone is the potential for abuse. Since the emergence of DNA research it has been proven that many many people are in prison who are completely innocent. Until technology caught up there was no way for them to prove their innocence (and usually their guilt was not cut/dry either but they were convicted none the less) I personally wouldn't want anyone else deciding a medical issue for me, even for the greater good, when there is an iota of a chance that they could be wrong. Would you? What if it were your son or daughter that was being wrongfully accused and you could do nothing to stop the government from killing or sterilizing them. I don't believe it could happen, I believe it WOULD definitely happen to someone. What if that someone was you or someone you love? Is it really worth the risk?
Well, yes. But do you really need to sterilize someone who's rotting in prison? (On second thought, don't answer that.)
While I agree in principle, it is often a slippery slope as it would most definitely morph into other practices like everything else in this world
Well depends on what you mean by sterilisation... because simply taking away their ability to have kids, would technically be better for them. Castration to the point where they don't have any drive and can't use their bits - yes, that's what they need.
I thought they tried that already and some of the abusers who were castrated ended up abusing kids with their fingers and mouths instead since they didn't have working sex organs anymore. Sex abuse is not sexual it's mental and I don't believe you can fix it. Personally I think we need to study it so much that we figure out how to control and then prevent it. It may never happen but there is definitely no easy solution like castration or pills or whatever.

I believe this should be a last resort type thing - but honestly, if someone does something that severe to a child I don't think they should ever get out of that jail cell for the rest of their life. Their victims get a life sentence and so should the perpetrator
An unpopular opinion would be to just use the death penalty for them too.
From my understanding, most cases of child abuse also lead to authorities taking away any other children and keeping a very close on on the people after that?
Sterilization has nothing to do with why abusers abuse. Usually it’s men who don’t have a child who kill their girlfriend’s child.
Actually it's a 51% men to 49% of women who kill kids.

As I get older I keep thinking, the person on death row and simply will “humanely” put to sleep. Did they offer that to their victims some of who fought for their lives?
The liberal and well educated (I am one) believe in the rights of the individual. Most of them don't believe in evil, that it's not the fault of the perpetrator. I, on the other hand, who had a real life before I 'got education' know that true evil exists and cannot excuse the strong abusing the weak and vulnerable. I am with you entirely.
You are actually wrong there, on most levels. And pretty damned patronizing. That’s not actually what all “liberal and well educated people” think, and they do very much live a life every bit EXACTLY as real as yours. “Before becoming one”? What? You don’t get to speak for everyone above a certain grade of education or everyone liberal, what are you even talking about?

IQ has extremely little to do with whether or not you'll be a good parent. However it has been used as an excuse to steralize healthy people without their consent for decades.

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.

Jeans and hoodies get washed maybe once a month (or three) unless something has got on them.

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 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.

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.

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!”
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.
