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/

Ooh, a rant! "No seriously, guys, I don't care what you think! I'll keep telling you just to make sure you understand! I'll respond again just to make sure!"
You're really killing it here. Put me in my place. I'm jealous of a rando on the Internet who thinks his life is so good that he has to tell other people that they're jealous.
I'm just here wasting the time of a troll and letting him spin out in rants and non sequiturs. Keep going. I'm sure you'll convince us you don't care with more effort.
I didn't say anything about forum rules. Upvotes are irrelevant. And yes, I'm wasting your time, apparently quite successfully, and with your apparent eagerness too. Keep wasting your time. Keep writing like a middle school kid bragging about how his dad can beat up someone else's dad. I'm sure you'll get that jealousy and respect you think you deserve. I'll just be here dying every second.
Is sealioning mentioned in the rules? I hadn't checked.
I think this is hilarious. I'm talking to someone who acts like a kid who thinks they just invented being obnoxious on the internet.
If you don't want respect then you're terrible at acting like it. People who don't care what others think don't brag anonymously and call randos jealous when they don't know anything concrete about you to be jealous of other than your weak trolling.
I'm guessing if you have an ex-wife, she probably complains about you. This is literally the first time I've commented in this community but you think I'm a regular. You're great at reading people. Keep it up! You'll get there someday...maybe...
This isn't Reddit, in case you hadn't noticed.
Do you read fortunes? There isn't enough context in our brief exchange for you to know anything meaningful about me. You really like the shadowbox with straw men.
I'm so mad! This is just awful. Some Dunning-Kruger University graduate is schooling me in how awesome his life is! Make your money writing whatever bullshit you want. Even trolls have to eat, especially when they're bad at bridge guarding. Tell Chat GPT I said hi next time you "write" an article.
