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.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

MODERATORS
Are people downvoting because this is actually a popular opinion and doesn't belong here or because they disagree with it?
“Yes.”
No
Can we not dissect every downvote like it’s an affront to your personal freedom?
It's an interesting question worth asking.
Can we not assume people are triggered when they're just asking honest questions?
I upvote if I'm having a good day, and downvote if I'm having a bad one.
You're doing it incorrectly. Upvote the opinions that you think deserve the moniker of "unpopular."
Forcing your own opinion on others is actually immoral.
OP appears to be a genuinely awful person in every possible metric, so I frankly just don't want to give them the dopamine hit.
They should be upvoting because they are applauding how bad my opinion is.
