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, it was just another twit not bothering to check C/ rules.

It's rule 1, btw, and easy to find.

No politics. You made a political post and it got removed.

This post is definitely a popular opinion, even though the specific wording is camouflage for the meaning.

See, underneath the words of the post are another opinion "my post got removed because I'm to lazy to check before I post, so mods are bad/dumb/powertripping/whatever"

That opinion is everywhere on the internet.

Something tells me there's a story here......and something tells me the modlog might tell it.

Trust me it’s not an interesting story.

I'm looking at my soda stream funny now.

You've created an intrusive thought I might not be able to avoid.

If your unpopular opinion is so unpopular it gets removed from unpopular opinions it's an unpopular opinion.

Happened to me on Reddit but the mods there were idiots.

Get over yourself.

Sounds to me like someone posted an opinion so bad that mods decided to have it removed and is now crying victim.

Sounds to me like your a big supporter of the word police.

Hmmmm no. This is a self fulfilling prophesy for posts that aren't appropriate for the sub
