Literally any doomer mentality is generally considered unpopular the more you elaborate on it. Even if it starts popular.

For example: I would like to explain why I think we need less people. That sounds agreeable. We need less people urgently tho. It’s the fundamental, foundational reason behind a large part of the world’s problems. That is still… somewhat… agreeable, But… But. But but… solving it? And there we go, because see, there’s only three methods to actually achieve it, and every single one of them will get people mad about this thing called “human rights” if we deem any of method worth trying.

So yeah, we’re doomed. Humanity is going to land on a critical point of failure in 300 years.

People are really entitled when it comes to copyright, just because they like something they think it’s okay to steal it, just because “it doesn’t hurt anyone”, an while in some cases that may be true, they act offended when something is behind a paywall or when an artist or company try to limit access to a piece of media. The author and the copyright owners are in their right to do whatever they like with any song/movie/show/book, and people shouldn’t be mad because someone limit access to something they rightfully own. Imagine if your neighbor comes walking into your house and steal food in your freezer because they say “they’re a fan of your food” that’s fucking stupid. Stop bitching about not being able to consume like the pigs you are and try to produce your own things instead.

Airbags on the whole cause more harm and expense than good.

The COVID pandemic never ended.

I am against a law allowing LGBTQ couples to adopt children in my country (Poland). I am not in any way against it as a general idea, but Polish society is full of full-on bigots and these kids would be subject to so much bullying, it’s really against their best interest.

The argument a lot of people raise “if we start doing it then people will get used to it” doesn’t work for me, because why should these children be victims of war that is not even theirs to fight? The whole thing makes me sick.

I’ve been downvoted for this opinion by both sides on Reddit.

You all look dumb when dancing.

All roads in the UK that are currently 30mph limits should be lowered to 20mph, and those at 40 lowered to 30. There should be a systematic review of those at 50 whether they should be 40. National speed limit should be lowered by 10mph.

American conservatives have never been correct in opposing a liberal or progressive proposal.

Many first unpopular opinion, which seems to be not unpopular anymore was in 7th grade (approximately 13-14 years old) we had a project week about drugs. I was the only one who said that I actually thought drugs should be legal. That was 20 years ago.

Other than that the closest thing to an unpopular opinion is that I sort of think arranged marriage between people in, e.g. the west and Thailand is ok IF the marriage also include empowerment clauses, e.g. full support for the woman to study or whatever she values. Also, there should be some beneficial exit clauses. It is sad that the women find these arrangement/arrange marriage beneficial, but as long as they do I support their desperate attempt to better their life. And yes I do know of some examples - both very good and bad.

Human life begins at some point after conception but before birth. Therefore, there comes a point in pregnancy at which abortion ends a human life.

The kWh is a silly unit. Joule (J) is the one true unit of energy.

Also, common time units suck as much as inches, pounds, feet and whatever nonsense units you Americans still use. Just use seconds with the appropriate SI prefix instead.

Cubic meters and tonnes suck too. Just use kl and Mg instead.

No one should be allowed to vote until they are 40 years old.

I hate the Foo fighters, I wish Kurt Cobain was still alive so he never had to hear the Foo fighters.

There are very few actual atheists - if any. Most “atheists” I’ve encountered are just edgy non-practising Christians. And I bet that goes for other parts of the world with other religions, too.
