Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
6. Defend your opinion
This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
You already got voted down, so maybe you're into an unpopular opinion.
I up voted because I'm not a fan. Not that the overall premise is wrong, it's that I love driving.
Hey friend, I have a few million kilometres under my butt, and we have three vehicles in the household, and I use car culture daily to explain technology to my clients.
But, you know, ummm, fuck cars for real. Planet is dying and culture is malnourished due to road supremacy.
I don't disagree with any of your arguments. I'm all for public transit and better modes of transportation or building cities to not need them nearly as much.
And I still love driving.
this post is currently a violation of rule 6
Oh I see, yup it's gotta go.
I'm on strange mobile what did i do wrong?
Oh i see: Well they are just really annoying people. I'm upset because cars use a street. It's over the top.
I like clubbing seals and reading books
LMFAO!
It's an old reference sir, but it checks it.
