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/

No, you’re doing this bullshit where either I agree with you or I don’t “support the vets”, straight out of the Republican playbook. It’s a gross tactic to use. Make your argument without bringing someone else’s personal struggles into this. If you think your vet buddy is more important than mine, say that with your chest.
No, again I was trying to provide a real example of how PTSD impacts people. You seem to not get how PTSD works. I was trying to show you an example if what that looked like unfortunately you decided that this was a moral pissing match which it wasn’t.
Your reaction was immature and inappropriate.
Oh please, save it for someone willing to buy that. You’re bent out of shape because I wasn’t swayed by your attempt at emotional manipulation.
