One of the things I like about Lemmy over Reddit is how unpopularopinion is not as popular here as it was over there. To me it always had a kind of bad flavor of just yucking somebody else's yum. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I can't see the point of getting on the internet for the sole purpose of taking somebody like say Carol Burnett, who by all accounts was a nice person, and talking about her show, which was very popular, and saying "I don't like it or her, I didn't find it/them funny."

I guess I'm saying I don't really understand unpopularopinion posts. They seem like institutionalized trolling.

Hmm, perhaps this is a unpopular opinion.

Don't forget the other sinister side...

"I purposefully chose a mate for the wrong reasons, but I need everybody to talk about how that person is an asshole, and my selection of partner is NOT to be impugned!"
