Aight I got one, I believe the elderly are less valid than the young and should have a lot of their privileges taken away. No voting once you hit retirement, no more driving, they should be entirely at the mercy of public infrastructure and if it’s not good enough for them then too bad. They had their entire life to build a better future and look where we are now. The senior vote has practically enabled fascism and they deserve more hatred for the way they think and behave. Especially since they are dependent on the young to bring in enough taxes to pay for their pension.
Anyways, let’s see who this upsets most 😅

People are suckers for moronic but narcissistic presidents.

Everybody likes ranch, and if you say you don’t, you’re lying to try and seem fancy.

Free will does not exist in the way we think of it, as this divine, magic thing that is above anything. Most of your success is more due to chance, and your environment, than your effort.

If you get taught wrong by your parents and/or peers, you are almost guaranteed to be locked into your bad behavior. So it was decided for you that you would play the role of a “bad person”.

Pretty much related to Nietzsche’s quote: “some men are born post-mortem”.

There’s also been a study showing monkeys unable to learn certain things, because it goes against the wirring of what they already learned, regardless of motivation, effort, reward.

Israelis and Palestinians have a right to a peaceful home. Outsiders have no right to dictate their policy (i.e. "death to <political entity>).

ITT people posting lots of things I don’t find controversial at all.

You want co controversial?! Ok
I think we should be able to decide our own deaths if we want too, and that should be law. Depresion is real, yes, but a lot of people want to LITERALLY impose life into others. Not only talking about end stage or crippling disease but also psychological issues so bad living with it is torture. You reading this and disagreeing are doing it becuse you afe either religious, and you are imposing your religion into others, or someone else would feel bad, regardless if the person lives in agony, they have to live to not make someone else sad. “I don’t want my son to take his life” YOU YOU YOU.

Of course I think there should be procedures and controls in place, like +21, 1 or 2 years mandatory psychiatric follow up, if you have youngs kid you also can’t. But if you are an adult, no kids, fuck your opinion dude, it’s their life their choice.

People are animals, apes to be specific, we act on instinct and adhere to the animal nature of our species. There is nothing grand or divine about us. There is nothing special to us, other than our ability to survive in different climates and environments, and there is nothing that separates us from the animals. We are the equivalent to over abundant irresponsible beavers with thumbs. The only reason we, as a species, think otherwise is purely delusion and wishful thinking.

Also, mothman did 9/11.

You can’t support Ukraine and other victims of military aggression, without having a strong arms industry yourself.

Rice and sauerkraut go well together

You-know-who needs to go you-know-where

Cis men aren’t lonely enough

Toxic masculinity killed Dale Earnhardt

Humans don’t deserve pets.

Suicide should be a human right. You should have to prove that you’re of sound mind and that you’ve considered and tried all other options. But once you’ve proven you’re not manic, psychotic, intoxicated, being coerced, etc and no other option will reasonably bring you peace you should be able to do it and get help making sure you don’t get stuck halfway or receive comfort care only until it’s over. Also every psych unit I’ve worked requires suspension of a DNR which terrifies me for involuntary admits.

I’m sure I have a bunch, but for the fediverse I think the most controversial is that I think neopronouns are a bad idea. DISCLAIMER I support queer folks, and I also use neopronouns when requested (because there’s zero reason to be a dick about it), but I think everybody would be better off without them.

The entire purpose of pronouns is to offer a quick, generic (i. e. non-individual) way of referring to people or objects without using their names. Using neopronouns which have to be communicated and learned first is the opposite of that. So in my view they’re not really pronouns, just additional names one has to learn for a person.

I think the most sensible way of accommodating all genders is using whatever pronouns are present in the language (usually male and female, or a generic pronoun), plus a non-binary pronoun if needed, like singular they in English.
