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/

Cannabis makes me paranoid and psychotic, walking by someone smoking it makes me "high". I doubt I'm the only one who feels this way, therefore it's harmful to others and should be forbidden. Consumtion in any other way should be legalized.

You didn't answer my question. You made the same idiotic point about therapy, I was making fun of you.

The question about your username?

It's ironic. Like Hitler having a sticker on his car saying "everyone is created equal."

Oh yes, you're trying to make fun of me. I'm ruining it for you. What do you think is humorous about therapy?

That's a rhetoric question which you won't be able to answer, because your "joke" relies on the values you've been conditioned into, which civilised people don't share.

And that's exactly why you should try to find a good therapist as well. Or perhaps you can't afford it?

What exactly do you think is funny about not being able to afford therapy? I live in a country with a working healthcare system.

Also I still don't get that thing with my username... Did you just compare it to hitler?
