Unpopular Opinion
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/

And what about those voting or not posting "carnist rhetoric?" Or is that just anything that isn't directly from your own mouth?
Banned!!!
She banned me for a well written post that I made in good faith. I wasn't saying "veganism bad" or anything like that, I even wrote that I was in huge support of the lab grown meat industry with a view to ending the demand for traditional meat farming. I was just putting my pov forward and suggesting a better way to engage with people who aren't vegan.
Didn't even get a message saying why I was banned, I can only assume she wants her communities to be echo chambers. It's such a shame, many of us left Reddit to get away from self absorbed, power hungry mods like her.
If you can't handle the opinions of the general public, you should probably get off of the soapbox.
