Unpopular Opinion
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/

I don't think this is an unpopular opinion. I think it's barely an opinion by the narrowest and most technical definition of what an opinion even is.
Your opinion is just stupid. I'm not saying you shouldn't have it or that it isn't valid. If you personally like your opinion, that's fine. I'm just saying that, in my opinion, your opinion is stupid.
"Do you think your opinion is cool?" No, I don't. You don't have some cool, edgy opinion. It's just, "Wahhhh, I don't like tattoos because I've arbitrarily decided not to, and I stick to it because it makes me feel special and unique compared to the majority."
Dude, not liking something for entirely subjective reasons isn't really an opinion, it's a preference.
An opinion would be, "I don't think anyone should get tattoos because..." followed by actual reasons. I'd still think you're wrong, but at least that would carry more weight than simply whining about something you've personally decided not to like.
Most of what you just said is nonsense.
