True spicy unpopular opinions. There’s just something about them that always gets people riled up and they always feel that they’ve got to attack it because they’re emotionally charged.

And no I’m not talking about unpopular opinions made for edgy purposes like “DEM *****S SHOULD BE BACK IN PLANTATION!” shit. I’m talking more thought out, articulative kinds and opinions that just come out of someone’s belief against the major tide of the hivemind.

I’ve spoken of opinions on Reddit, on here, on Facebook and a couple of other platforms. Everytime it’s the same thing, people are attacking it and unable to engage in a discussion. They always assume I’m just here to listen to myself talk and just looking for people to only agree with me.

I don’t give a fuck whether or not you agree with me. Opinions aren’t facts or anything. But I don’t have the patience for emotionally-charged people that’s going to come on in and just throw down for no reason.

So I think nobody is ready to handle these kinds of thoughts.

    They don’t get a cut, they get a wage. That wage is as low as it is because of lobbying from wealthy fucks, and they can reduce it to 0 by firing you with flimsy reasoning. The workers make the rich rich, and the rich makes the workers poor.

    Customers want goods cheap, but they’re really bad at noticing what’s cheap and what’s manipulative. JC Penny tried to remove sales and just offer cheaper clothes, but people wanted more expensive clothes with a 50% off label on it. Shops will inflate the price on a luxury item to make a lower-priced item look reasonable, even if the lower price is still inflated.
