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.
6. Defend your opinion
This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

MODERATORS
and I rarely see people excusing it outside of active degenerate communities where these specific people congregate.
like, I'm not gonna pretend these people don't exist, but you have no idea how frustrating it is getting lumped in with these disgusting people because they, like most westerners, look at something fundamentally non-sexual and then sexualize the fuck out of it.
As for CP2077, I'm more concerned how it does things like glorify rape fantasies. That whole franchise is about showing the worst of what humanity has to offer. So I kind of write off everything in there as "yeah, it's supposed to be fucked up and gross"
p.s. literally just had to respond to someone else in this comment section who said I was making a bad faith argument because "30% of anime is pedo shit" so there are definitely a big group of people out there saying it's the rule.
