What's the most unpopular opinion you have?
 
inquiring minds want to know.

That Europe > America.

I think most people would agree.

I find Bridget Powers more attractive than Linsay Lohan :-)

Well, not the Americans I've met. And I do believe this bord is full of 'em, so I expect to get flamed.

no argument from me

The one where i stated that the majority of men do not like women.

a lot of people strongly disagree.

oh that and :

there is no meaning of life. no higher purpose, nothing beyond death.



re. the 1st opinion :

oddly enough overheard on the elevator just this morning 2 guys talking about going somewhere :

'are you bringing your girlfriend'

"no - i want to have fun" (by the tone it was obvious it was not said in jest)

So, you and I both love our countries, and believe that our countries are the best...Sounds like we actually have something in common ;)

I believe that THIS would be a better example of an unpopular opinion:

As for me, ask me just about anything and you're bound to get an unpopular opinion :p

Europe, being a continent consisting of about 40 different countries, is indeed not "my country".

Oops, my bad...I felt that your sentiment was coming from the fact that your country was part of Europe, and that your love of Europe was reflective of your adoration for your country...Perhaps I should have said love of our 'continents', but while Canada isn't too bad, you can take Mexico from mine...I was just trying to make a comparison without quibbling over specifics :)

I believe most feminists are completely off base and that turning women into a minority, in spite of the oppression that has happened to them, is one of the biggest ideological failures of the 20th century. Calling half the world population a minority and making them a race was stupid. It only serves to make people further ignore that we are more human than we are anything else.

I believe that feminism as a whole is a stupid concept...If you want equality, stop separating yourselves into groups to make yourselves unequal so that you can demand equality.

I've always been female, I've always been equal

I think global warming is natural and not nearly as bad a Al Gore makes it out to be. A lot of people disagree with that one.

I'm with you 100% on that one.

It's not only natural, it's also cyclical...And it happens on all of the planets.

i think people should be willing to pay higher taxes to help those less fortunate (both in the US and in other countries) - yes - i am a goddamn commie-monkey

Agreed. Some people have money to spare and some people are massively in debt. I think it should be based on specific criteria though. People living on welfare and unemployment their whole life, or faking disabilities don't deserve the help. People who have a family and work hard to provide for them, or work super hard and get laid off could really use the help.

Doc Faustus 04-15-2009 10:48 AM

I believe the rich shouldn't bitch when their Lexuses get stolen,, because if they were pulling their weight in society there wouldn't be so many desperate criminals on the street. Crime is the only active form of American socialism.

Doc Faustus 04-15-2009 10:51 AM

Also, I find The Godfather dull.

what ?

i can see why that opinion is unpopular !

missmacabre 04-15-2009 11:01 AM

It seems most of the opinions here are shared by other people on this site, yet we find them unpopular. I have come to the realization that I am wasting my time on not like minded individuals. I don't have time to argue or deal with drama and it's just not healthy anyway. :D


It's sunny out, so I am sorry if I'm freaking people out with my optimism and zest. haha

So are you comparing the continent of Europe to America? I hope not, that would be pure idiocy. Maybe you meant to say Europe is better than North America? South America?

It's finally nice out here too, I'd be as happy as you if I weren't working...

Yeah, why should somebody who has worked hard to amass a fortune be able to buy expensive things? I hope you make millions off your books... I'll make sure to rob you as often as possible. PS: Socialism sucks. PPS: Would it be Lexuses or Lexi?

Posher778 04-15-2009 12:40 PM

I think the Godfather, Darren Aronofsky, and Blade Runner SUCK ASS. As well as Lord of the Rings, The Matrix, and Led Zeppelin.

I believe a college degree is not required to make someone happy, nor should it be. I think the only things that REALLY matter in life is finding happiness, fitting in somewhere where you belong, and finding some form of success, whether it be at Days Inn or being a porn director. I don't care.

I'm referring to the people who make millions of dollars stomping on anybody else they can. Those people who have thousands of dollars on their person and can walk past ten homeless people without throwing them a dime. For the truly greedy, crime is karma. Lexi would be the plural I suppose. I agree that socialism tends to suck. It has not been practiced in a manner that everybody can live alright in, because it hasn't been tempered by social conscience or common sense. Ideally, we ill have a should be looking out for other human beings without the government having to shove it in people's faces. But, many rich people have decided that poor means lazy. That isn't true. There's a Russian proverb: if everybody gives a thread the naked one will have a shirt. It's just a matter of people ethically understanding that we're all in this together. I don't think people who have money buying nice things because they worked hard is bad, I think rappers having golden swimming pools while people with college degrees are living in tents is bad. If one of these negligent bastards who parades their wealth while on the news it's reported we're in a giant recession gets one of their fifty sportscars stolen, it's not a tragedy and it's a consequence of those who have not giving a shit about those who don't. I refuse to believe CEO's work 100 times harder than factory workers. And as for deserving punishment for making millions off my books (should this happen), at this level, I'm doing every damn thing I can for unpublished writers I know and if something in the works goes through, I'll be doing even more. If I had resources, I'd be making sure a lot of artists didn't go starving.

nothing i read there excuses criminal behavior though.

i think the percentage of people comitting crimes just so they can eat (in north america) is pretty damn low.

There are plenty of people, including scientists, who disagree with much of what that alarmist spouts...

The two biggest ones for me are:

God does not exist

and


Women only like to date assholes or rich guys or maybe rich assholes.

I believe in God, but I think people create these big ridiculous things about him that I don't think are true.

Also: Obama is the way worse than Bush ever was. The end. If you think otherwise, your opinion is invalid.:eek:
