Seems like a slam dunk contingency case

Hampsterdance!
I'm reminded of their support for that random Democrat from Hawaii. Turns out she was anti gay and pro intervention.
These people don't have to be told a damn thing. They suspect the worst of the best, the best of the worst, and when it comes to 'others' they have nothing but scorn, even if it's completely baseless. It seems to be a kind of narcissism.
"Good people can't be good because I look bad by comparison. Bad people are good because I look good by comparison. Other people don't look like me at all and so we must assume the absolute worst..."
To be fair though, I don't know how we can sustain illegal immigration of low income workers.
Flick it to stick it!
I just don't understand why we can't have mid engine trucks anymore.
Imagine all that space with a smaller footprint!
The holodomor as it is reported in the West appears to be a myth. There was a widespread famine where more Kazakhs and Russians died than Ukrainians, and the USSR did try to send Ukraine provisions but not enough. Also there is under reporting in the West of kulaks burning their fields instead of giving them up to the govt. Stalin even thought the West might have been responsible but that seems to just be Stalin being Stalin.
That's not exactly a genocide, just more incompetence as usual.
The man whose work is most often cited has been refuted by his own wife and the initial publishing came with doctored photos that he removed when they were called out.
Can I have it? :D
Ro-butts! And govt procured provisions purchased in bulk if money is tight.
In the 1920s, many Americans who were put to work could not be paid because 'the govt had no money' but from remembrances of those who lived, they never ate better. I'm talking multiple huge fried pork chops per person, etc, but no spending money. It should cost even less to feed seniors, though I'd worry about the diet becoming too inflammatory.
You'll just end up like China with millions of undocumented children, mostly women. Children who are local get to go to school as long as they are registered to live with a local family, so there is no impediment there. Also you will have tremendous flouting of the law unless you create a perfect sterilizing agent that is reversible and deploy it en masse.
None of these are unpopular takes other than the first one. It's no one's business who you fuck. We have no fault divorce for those who want out for any reason. The state doesn't care about why you divorce, and it seems like many successful people have multiple families so it also seems like it wouldn't be too difficult to trip past that either.
Edit: the climate change one is also unpopular since all that will happen is the loss of diversity and people who live near the shore will have to move inland. There will be more extreme weather events but it's not like we're going to turn into Venus. Things are just going to get more expensive and classist and racist.
Put on your big girl pants? The first time anyone with power says that to me, I am so out. I know my contributions won't be taken seriously by someone who speaks like that. If they want me back they'll have to pay a 300% asshole fee at a minimum.
