Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

We should build an A.I. overlord so that it replaces our current leadership like politicians and the entire market bussines specially the top, so that it can exploit resources in a reneuable way that is already possible right now but you know... lobying and fucking oil companies, and redistribute them to the population in a just way incluiding but not limited to food (nice food not rations), housing, medical services, psichological support (but the real one not the human resources bullshit), entertainment and internet access, and eventually be able to make custom orders like custom furniture, video game capable aparatus, modifing your house, travel and even swimmimg pools and ice cream. Besides i think our survival hinges on us making something about our leadership since there is at least one major problem that we need fixed that our current leadership is not gonna solve i.e. golbal warming, since they rather sell their souls and their people to the oil companies, and replacing them (even with a coup) is just gonna put more corruptible people that are gonna get bought out by some other straigth up cartoonishly evil entity, or they themselves turning into it or being overtrown by it, and destroying the entity would require a massive effort and thats not happening without mass destruction and even if it is destroyed another one will rise up from the chaos caused by the anti corporate war. So the sollution would be a singularity level A.I.

Everything everywhere all at once was a great, enjoyable, fun movie but did not deserve best movie and Jamie Lee Curtis basically got a lifetime award which was unfair to the other actresses

I think people don't even want to discuss options for surveillance online and offline because they never were and don't actually fear to be victims of violent crimes.

I also think people who say surveillance and police need to be abolished believe (subconsciously) in the "just world" hypothesis or they have main character syndrome and think that bad stuff only happens to people who somehow deserve it.

The U,S. Mail delivery system is owned by the Oligarch Cartel that also owns Congress and numerous govt. institutions. It's nothing but an "ADS TO YOUR DOOR/mailbox" junk-mail delivery service. SHUT IT DOWN!!! It's actual f*ing SPAM in physical form.

I swear, every square inch and cm of the United States is for sale. Disgusting. Disappointing.
