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.
Many measures against climate change won’t be accepted since it would have major impacts on people’s life choices even if the pollution is being done by major companies.
Yup, we should be taxing fossil fuels like crazy and putting those funds directly into green infrastructure, but “mah truck!”.
Part of what sparked the yellow vest protests in France was an increase in fuel taxes.
I’d be willing to wager a larger percentage of those protesting the increased fuel costs are also “very concerned” about climate change.
