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/

The discourse on atheist subreddits is so insufferable and ignorant it actually makes me want to become religious when I am staunchly atheist (sopuli.xyz)

I say this knowing that people stuck within conservative communities that use violence to maintain conservatism through functionally-mandatory religious power structures don’t necessarily have an outlet to deal with the resulting trauma and that this context has to be considered when they get online and vent in toxic ways about religion on atheist communities.

….but still

~~This u?~~ I was wrong! It was OP that said this. Not the person I'm replying to!

~~there was a meme post about how Islam is definitely a violent religion. I agreed with that aspect of the meme.~~

~~I completely agree with this, but don't think you OP can get away with lying~~
