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?
Google Stadia was actually a good gaming service.
Especially for Cyberpunk 2077.
To be loved and hated at the same time, you just have to choose a side in politics, so, fuck Trump. I don’t have a problem with the Republicans/conservatives. I think conserving one’s nation and culture is important, but not attacking anyone and everything with discrimination. And I won’t even get started on tariffs. The ones that will pay for it will be the everyday person, not the multi-billionares and milionars.

Pokemon Go was better before they added Remote raids and they should heavily restrict remote raids in a smarter way to undo the damage they did.
I think they should do a few things,
- Implement distance limits
- implement friendship level requirements to send invites
- remove or significantly increase the daily remote raid limit
- completely remove the inventory limit of remote raid passes. With the implementation of a daily limit of participation, there is no reason to restrict inventory of those remote passes.
Ingress > Pokemon GO
Well I haven’t played in years, but I was super active in Ingress right until Pokemon Go became a thing. I found it so fun and innovative, and PG felt like Ingress with a skin, so it didn’t hold my attention at all.
Eh, apples and oranges.
They’re both AR-Geo games, built on the same engine, but they have TOTALLY different gameplay loops.
Ingress is a team turf war.
Pokemon Go is at its core a collection game.
Handicapped parking spaces should be reserved only for those who require an assistive device that necessities additional room around their vehicle for unloading and loading.
In a hypothetical world in which protected handicap parking didn’t exist, these people would be burdened by needing to always find parking spaces with an additional empty space next to them, and hoping that space remained empty when they return. Too high a burden.
So we rightfully have built into our civic and building codes the requirement that a certain number of protected handicap parking spaces be available. At least in my jurisdiction if you look at protected handicap parking, you’ll see that every space has an additional half space next to it to allow for egress of assistive devices. Without these protective half spaces built into every handicap parking space, people requiring such devices would face the undue burden I mentioned above; these handicap spaces give people equal access.
My controversial take is that only people requiring such devices should be granted access to these spaces. Yes, I know that there are many people that have a more difficult time walking and can benefit from closer proximity to their destination, but in my opinion, these requirements shouldn’t be for the “benefit” of anyone, but only the equal treatment for those facing the aforementioned undue burden.
In my opinion, for every one person needing an assistive device, and every two people who would simply benefit from close proximity, there are numerous people who use handicap parking for convenience. I’ve seen motorcycles with handicapped parking placards for goodness sake.
Private Schools are a must and I rather have great private schools over good public schools
The average American does not give a single shit about protecting minority or women’s rights, from my lived experience. Not unless it affects them directly.
Both can be true. This probably makes more sense in your head.

Those countries “rose again” because of massive investments in them. If the USA let Germany or Japan settle their debts and rebuild on their own they would be third world nations still. The same is true for Korea.
The greatness is money from foreign sources not some racist bullshit notion of inherent greatness.
By your “logic” the actual “greatness” is entirely American. That is of course a moronic notion as America had the money because European and Asian economies were devastated by WWI & WWII.
Your unpopular opinion is unpopular because it is just racist.
You clearly never been to the Netherlands.
What if I told you that after the second World War The Netherlands did not have enough people left to work and rebuild so they actively put policies in place to get more migrant workers.

I’ve been trying to be more willing to listen recently. Of course there are some people who don’t want to have a dialogue and will just post their anger and run. I don’t engage with these posts cause the user was looking for a reaction rather than a conversation.
But if someone is willing to explain why they feel the way they do about something, willing to hear criticism, and perhaps even ask me questions, I’m more likely to engage with them.

Given this is Lemmy/Reddit overspill I think the more unpopular opinion mentioned here would be “you shouldn’t be apathetic towards social problems and instead actually try to do something about them”

I may be reading this wrong. But are you saying if you are white, you must behave a certain way(refrain from yelling or cursing, etc…but if you are a minority, it’s acceptable to do those things? Or have I totally missed what you are saying?

The US shouldn’t be allowed to intervene in any other country unless an absolute majority of countries request so in an international forum (and in a publically broadcast meeting), and never if US companies are going to benefit of the destruction of said country or in its reconstruction. Furthermore, the US State Department undue influence in foreign countries’ policy should be illegal and an imprisonable offense involving all the chain of command from the lesser underling until the President.

I don’t know about everyone else, but the way my partner describes being horny and not being able to turn it off sometimes really concerns me, like it seems to me that having something so distracting and in the forefront of your mind constantly would be really upsetting, like an addiction, and how would you focus on other things when that’s happening? I definitely believe the composition of the human body and the reliance on chemicals and hormones is a huge hinderence to our further intellectual evolution. Obviously overall they are super necessary in the functioning of our bodies and were integral in our evolution up to this point, but now that we have the ability to be sapient and have the technology within our grasp to one day separate the mind from the squishy, fallible, salty meat sacks, my vote is wholeheartedly for a cyborg existence. My back hurts and my head hurts and and I’m too hot and too cold and dehydrated and hungry and I need to pee and that is just too many obstacles between me and the knowledge and betterment of humanity I crave.

How would you remove it without ending humanity?

people would have lots more free time, instead of looking for ways to fulfill themselves sexually.
As an asexual, I can tell you that unfortunately that’s not the case. I suck at life, procrastrinate most of the free time I have and I’ve never really felt like it’s any kind of an advantage that I don’t have to deal with it, as far as “being more accomplished” is considered.
But I agree on your other points. I have amazing relationships with other people of both genders, because it turns out that it’s really a lot easier to make friends when you don’t need to fight the urge to bone them, or have an ulterior motives.
