Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

The problem is people think capitalism, socialism, and even communism are mutually exclusive. They're all tools, and like any tool they're better for some jobs than others.

Trying to make a society work using just one across the board is doomed to failure. As is failing to impliment and update safeguards against disparities in equity and power.
