Everyone is entitled to having their own beliefs. Some people keep them to themselves. Some like to blare them out every chance they get. And others have views so unconventional, they completely go against the status quo.

When not every opinion is greeted with open arms, we’re lucky to have the internet where we can spark a discussion with complete strangers. There’s an Instagram account dedicated to sharing some of the best posts from the popular subreddit called Unpopular opinion. From electric vehicles to stuffed animals, members of this community have something to say about virtually any aspect of life.

So get ready to dive into some of the best posts this account had to offer. Upvote the ones you agree with, and, if you want to stir some emotions, share your own disputable views in the comments below. Psst! After you’re done, be sure to check out Part 1 of this post right here.

I agree, too many times people feel entitled due to their age. You don't owe anyone anything. Congrats on the souvenir and the story you will be able to tell your friends and family.

Sometimes, we're discouraged from expressing our unpopular opinions because of the adverse reactions we might get from the people around us. Whether we’re talking about politics, religion, or popular culture, sharing our deepest beliefs can make someone feel pretty irritated. 

However, while some end up scratching their heads from confusion, others see a like-minded person and gladly show their support in heated discussions. After all, a controversial point of view does not instantly mean that it’s uncommon. When you push your fears of being the odd one to the side, it’s much likely you'll encounter others sharing the same thoughts as you. 

Brandwatch, a digital consumer intelligence company, was on a mission to investigate the most popular unpopular opinions on social media. They looked at consumers’ mentions from January 1 to June 30, 2020, excluding news, retweets, and shares. Results showed that 1.6M people shared their controversial beliefs in this period. Also, there were 34% more mentions during the lockdown compared to the four months prior.

Greed and narcissism... it's sad, but it's human nature. The majority of the people out there are fake as heck, and will do things like posting videos of themselves crying on the internet as PR moves, to help promote and enhance their brands, to help them gain those clicks, likes, follows, and subscribes. Even more sad is that there ARE the odd few out there who honestly have no one and no where else to turn to, and are using the internet to reach out. But those odd genuine few are usually buried and overshadowed by all the loud popular influencers out there, with their TikToks and viral videos and their memes.

Harassment is the right word. What happened to Diana and other famous people with the paparazzi actually haunting them, spying and giving no Fu*ks. But here's a thought: Who the hell buys those rag mag's is an accomplice bc if they stop buying that filth then the paparazzi will (nearly) go away or at least be way less.

When it comes to the topics people touch on, the top ones were about characters in pop culture, TV shows, dislike of fandoms, and books. People shared their complaints about some of the bestsellers of the century and aired their grievances about how some shows have become outdated. For example, 34K mentions called out Friends "for being hugely popular, despite some aspects not being acceptable today." 

The researchers also looked into Reddit, where 958K users shared their gripes. "It seems like lockdown got to Reddit users, too. Posts to r/UnpopularOpinions increased 105%." They found that many of these mentions touched on things that happened on the platform itself. Most of them were focused on sports players, subreddits, and seeing change as not being good.

So while it can be fun to share your controversial views online, they also let others say opposing views, have heated discussions, and see things from different perspectives. Anna Akbari, P.hD., is a sociologist, writer, and speaker who shared her thoughts on why unpopularity isn’t necessarily a bad thing in a piece on The Psychology Today

She explained that if we want to be happy, successful, and feel of service, we don’t actually need to appeal to the masses. "See, we’re complicated beings, each with our own unique experiences, full of biases and contradictions and, hopefully, a point of view," she wrote. "Having a point of view is a good thing, even when that view isn’t universally embraced."

100% - the cheater is the one at fault - unless the people they cheated with is also someone who you have a relationship with then it's equal blame as they both owe you loyalty. I've never understood the blame being passed to the person they cheat with, and it's usually women who blame the other woman when their guy cheats - I sure there's a patriarchal link to all that that could be deciphered but seriously, they're just a shitty person if they knew he was involved with someone - if they didn't then they're just as much a victim in it all. This idea that men can't help themselves if offered sex has to stop - you don't accidentally have sex - yeah, you may regret it after but you totally know what you're doing while you're doing it.

Mixed feelings on this one. People do make mistakes, and some people can be very manipulative and purposely try to take advantage of a couple that is already in the middle of a sressful situation such as sickness, death in the family, or financial hardship. NOTE: I am currently in the middle of this very situation. It is never as cut and dry as it may seem.

Yes. Every now and then I hear of someone trying to convince the person they're having an affir with to leave their spouse and marry them. And I think, Why? You KNOW this person isn't loyal. He cheated on his wife with you. What makes you think he won't cheat on you with somebody else? If he left his wife for you because you're younger and prettier or whatever, what do you suppose will happen when you get a little older and he meets someone younger and prettier than you?

In all of my six plus decades of life, I can truthfully say I have never seen an example of "The Grass is Greener on the Other Side" to ever once hold true. Exactly the opposite, everyone I've ever talked to that left their mate after cheating said that the grass on the new side ended up tasting even worse than where they were. Work on what you already have, loyalty is worth more than all the beauties in the world dressed in gold.

It has always made no sense to me to see the cheater being treated like some kind of valuable prize, sitting back and enjoying watching their victims—-the ones the cheater cheated on and with—-fight each other. What those victims should be doing is joining TOGETHER to kick that lowlife cheating f****r’s ass out of their lives and into next week!

Lost my "partner" a couple of times. Different partners. One was a casual relationship and he got back together with his old girlfriend. They married. Second one was a guy I was really crazy about. He got together with another girl. They married. Apparently I drive them to marry others. It's OK. I wound up with a good guy myself and I never cheated on anybody so no regrets.

My partner and I are in our third decade together. We both express gratitude that we are genuinely each other‘s best friend. And that friendship means more to us than any other aspect of our interpersonal relationship, including the intimacy and the exclusivity. Still, every day we both remember that this is not permanent. One of us may die. As a matter fact, both of us will eventually die. In the meantime, one of us may decide we don’t want what we currently have for ourselves or with each other or we may come to the conclusion that we want something or someone altogether different. As painful, life altering and cataclysmic as that may seem, I worry more about him being happy in all of his choices than I do about losing him. I never want him to feel trapped or tied down, nor do I ever want him to develop any resentment because he chose to stick with me and what we currently have. I wouldn’t be happy and he wouldn’t be happy in that situation.

I mean, it takes two to tango. You can't just solely blame the other person or the cheating partner/spouse. It is the other person's job to stay away if they know said person is in a relationship. And it's also the partner/ spouse's job to stay loyal.

This! And it’s not like the person they’re endearing on you with knows what’s going on, I mean like yeah sometimes they do but other times they just think it’s a single person they want to have a relationship with! OR maybe they think it’s an open relationship. Who knows? But it is always the person who is cheating on you’s fault because they l KNOW WHAT THEYRE DOING.

My ex actually blamed me for his cheating because he said if only I had acted like I “cared”. I replied with, I get up everyday to drive you to work, make you breakfast, made your lunch, if I could, cooked dinner, did laundry, kept our place clean, all while working and going to school AND, I work with all men and have never cheated on YOU. How much more could I “care” ? It was at that point that I knew he would always be a cheat and it would always be my fault. Lucky for me, I made good money and it was my place first, so out he went. I guess he finally figured out that I did care when he came groveling back asking me to forgive and give it another try. Once a cheater always a cheater tho…..so uuuuhh….NO!!

so true. I also wonder why so many women whose partner cheated on their previous gf with them complain that he's doing exactly the same thing to them - do they really think that they are so special that the guy just HAD to cheat with them so they could be come a happy couple and he'd never ever look at another woman again? Sure, it happens that someone is in an unhappy relationship, cheats, starts a new bond with that person and they're happy, but that is not the norm.

Well...should be your ex-partner--because if they do it once, 999 times out of 1000, they'll do it again. They'll just likely get better at hiding it.

I dont care what anyone says, when anyone chases or pursues a person that they know is in a relationship, that person is a total piece of $hit and no one will convince me otherwise. Some women brag about doing this because they like breaking up couples because they are obviously jealous they dont have a relationship, and they think its "fun" and it makes them feel powerful and important. Sick society we live in.

I demand respecting my opinion that it is not acceptable to me. Been flat out lied to too many times. Just pack your bags and don't come back if you decide you want more than I give you.

This. I have been "the other woman" though I was completely unaware the person I was dating was already with someone. We met online, and all seemed perfectly normal. He came clean after 18 months - because they had just bought a house together and he didn't know how to keep up the act. Somehow, in that scenario, as I was recovering from getting hurt, I ended up being vilified as the "bad person". So much hate - for a choice I DIDN'T MAKE and a relationship HE PUSHED FOR, acting as though he was single and describing her as "his ex". I actually ended up having a nervous breakdown.

People are not property. You don't own anyone. Just let them go if they want to move on. Always keep that door open for them to go when they want and accept that's what they want when they leave. Let them know it's open. If they go behind your back, then they've left when your back was turned. Tell them the door swings both ways but it's not a revolving door, and once they leave the door is locked until you say it's open.

Thank you. I've been the biggest red ass in the room for expressing that, especially during my divorce period. No one wanted me to be ok with it. The trust was broken, that was that. I was walking away after a serious breach of trust, and I restructured my life to fit my new situation. Riding jeeps, hunting antlers and artifacts, spending massive time in remote places. Living out of my jeep and backpack with an awesome dog to watch over me. She got a house she likes, a boyfriend she likes, a decent life. All in all, fair trade. Sorrynshit.

While we can wholeheartedly stand by one issue, we can also not see eye to eye on another. "Agreeing to disagree on most things in life is fine—assuming it doesn’t restrict the liberty or human rights of others. It’s when we start to think that we need to agree on everything all the time to merely function together that we get into trouble," Akbari mentioned. 

Needless to say, popularity isn’t essentially bad. Lots of things that are commonly and generally accepted by our society are considered as "safe". Akbari explained that we don’t have to immediately or categorically reject the popular stuff but rather "selectively embrace it, or at least occasionally challenge it."

Yes, it really should be free. I have been in therapy on and off for years and it has been free (/paid by taxes). It's due to mental health issues so free healthcare = free mental healthcare. I learned a lot and cope much better. I wish it was available to all who needs it. To hear that people live with anxiety, ptsd, depression etc and can't afford therapy to learn how to cope better is really, REALLY sad.

However, if your views are not clinging to the mainstream popular or if they tend to stir some unexpected or even rude reactions, "don't despair. You don’t need to bend toward conformity, and you may even be able to cash in—financially and socially—on stepping outside the conventional bounds."

She mentioned two rules that people who tend to lean into unpopularity should remember. The first one is that you should actually believe what you’re saying or doing. "Disagreeing for the sport of it is annoying and, rightfully, no one likes or respects you if you do that. So stop it," the sociologist advised.

I agree completely. The world will always need woodworkers, metal workers, plumbers, electricians etc, not young people with huge financial debt and very little practical skills.

Retired teacher here, so let me weigh in on the realities. For elementary school kids, I'd overwhelmingly vote yes. Younger kids want to please the teacher; they want to be around the teacher, around other kids, in class. HOWEVER, as someone who taught middle and high school for 26 years, this does not work at all. By that time, there are a lot of kids who are looking for any way to leave the classroom. Yes, there are times they need to use the bathroom, but quite often they also want to socialize. There have been groups in certain years (not all by any means) that texted and met up in bathrooms and fought, too. It helps if a teacher has a sign in/out pass, or gives a certain number of tickets per month. Other children who don't have to use the bathroom COULD give a classmate a ticket if they felt generous.

"The second rule is to embrace your unpopular opinions with the knowledge and grace that not everyone shares your point of view," she continued. This rule can be quite tough since we humans have a general tendency to want others to agree with us. After all, it makes us feel heard and valued. 

However, following this guideline "starts with a promise to both give up convincing other people to buy into your less popular opinions and to stop shaming them for their own thoughts and actions."

My previous boss (who was an absolute jerk!) used to say "there's a line of people waiting to take your place, if you quit." I did quite eventually. Seven years later and... my place is still unoccupied. And not just mine - two other people also quit from that office, and replacements could never be found. Or someone would start and then quit a month later due to the conditions. I guess the line of people for my spot turned out to be a bit too short ;)

Or, stop suing everyone for making mistakes. Yes there are serious negligence cases, but they're a lot less common than the cases where "negligence" is claimed, but it's just an honest mistake. Americans really need to stop that s**t.

We have to get rid of the phrase "unskilled labour". A janitor needs practical skills far above average (at least a good one does), and the working conditions of courier drivers or fastfood workers require a great deal of stamina and resilience. In any job you can go from beginner to master, working your job better or faster. Even more important, the economy absolutely depends on the jobs we tend to call "unskilled". Usually, in any company, if a middle manager is absent for some days, work continues more or less as usual. If the cleaning lady is absent, you notice the problems after a day or two the latest.

After that, it’s all about trusting yourself. If you believe that some things are just not right, don’t be shy and share your views with others because, chances are, there are people out there just like you. According to Akbari, there is value in dissent. "There’s often truth at the fringes and insight in unpopular perspectives. Greatness comes neither from blindly following nor from knee-jerk rejecting."

"Many of our greatest historical figures held really, really unpopular opinions. They did stuff that made people cringe or even retaliate against them. Going against the grain takes guts. And that courage is admirable, even if we disagree with what they’re saying or doing—but only when executed with integrity from a place of personal honesty," she wrote.

We are very happy together and have no real problems in our relationship - we just both like a decent night sleep. People assume that we aren’t intimate and/or that our whole relationship is falling apart, which couldn’t be further from the truth.

I feel like the human approach to "what to do with the waste/recycling of electric vehicles" will (and probably is) treated similar to the problem of what to do with nuclear waste, and unfortunately, our approach seems to be to sweep it under the rug and let future generations figure it out.

I went to France twice. One time through the Christmas and New Year's holidays and then again in Summer for rock climbing and rappelling. Both times I and the people I was with were all treated like crap by every French national we crossed paths with even though we were always discrete and polite. Had the same experience later in Quebec. It's left a lasting distaste with me for French Culture.

Where do you stop though? Football, rugby and cricket pitches are dotted across my city. Should all organised sport be outlawed? Bottom line is people are paying to use that greenspace so it maintains itself. Parkland needs maintaining and with no income stream, that can end up costing the local authority quite a bit. That said, there is a place for parks and everybody should have access to greenspace, it's just how do we do it and keep everybody happy whilst balancing the books?

I think if it's done correctly you don't notice that it's there - it's the crappy and overdone ones we notice and then judge everyone by that standard. My ex Co-worker used to get it done every 6months or so and you really wouldn't know if she hadn't told you, it was done in a way that stopped her forehead wrinkling up, crows feet etc but still had plenty of movement and expression - if I ever want it done I'll be going where she did. She looked awesome and at most looked like early 30's when she was twenty years older. Making it readily available via people who have short term courses to qualify is what makes it look horrific

It's partly the fault of Hollywood, and the media in general. Most of us are convinced that once we found "the one" they will complete us, compliment us and fill in all the gaps and cracks in our lives, in our hearts. Not sure that is healthy to be honest - it hypes them up to an unrealistic degree in our minds, and makes relationships more "magical" and unobtainable than they might actually be.

Former teacher here. There are three reasons you go to school (at least in the US): 1) To learn a base set of knowledge so you don't look stupid in conversations ("I thought Africa was a country!") 2) To learn HOW to learn. Your style of learning is unique to you, and you need to learn what that is. It's probably not going to be spot on with what the education system has to offer, but you'll be learning how to handle things in that type of environment. 3) To learn what you want to learn. My son is getting a PhD in Spanish Language Arts right now. If he hadn't been forced to take a language in middle school he would never have known that he like languages and had an affinity for them. It's not about learning the right structure for an essay, it's about learning how to organize your thoughts so when you go to write that grant proposal, you do it so well you get the grant!

I think 90% (minimum!) of TikTok is a blight on human reasoning and intelligence.

So butterflies and roses are lame/childish, but memes and Rick n Morty designs aren't ? Well then shop in the men's section, different designs are catered towards women and men for a reason.

you can't expect teachers to create brand new quizzes for every class. There is such a thing as validity of the quizzes and that can't be calculated if you use new ones all the time. If you're trying to be fair, then you need to know that the same score on a test will actually mean the same thing.

Well just because you don't feel hungry for at least 1.5 hours doesn't mean I don't feel hungry. Just because something doesn't work for you doesn't mean it's overrated or doesn't make sense.

I agree, but most of the above is about having a wedding rather than getting married (ie the legal bit).

Tipping as a requirement is stupid and shitty management if they aren't paying properly, if tipping is mandatory then just change your menu prices...oh wait, that costs you a tiny bit more in tax. Delivery drivers being tipped? That's stupid, again just charge (more) for delivery. I get good service, I tip, but wages are the responsibility of the management, not the customer.

My mom used to go through all of my stuff about every 6 months, always when it was at school or camping or what not. She would throw away almost everything. I learned not to bother trying to have anything and if a friend wanted to give me a gift I'd ask if I could keep it at their house, otherwise I wouldn't have it long. It's probably because of this I'm not materialistic at all and the total opposite of a hoarder. My place is very spartan. No my mother isn't spartan. She's not a hoarder but has a house full of stuff and many storage units full of stuff.

Not sure not showering is "shameful and might be harmful", I think that's the whole point they were trying to get across. There's a difference between never showing and assaulting peoples' noses, and not showering daily while still smelling fine.

There's also emotional work. I'm a homeless shelter manager. It's not physical labor - there's no heavy lifting or anything - but a lot of new hires don't last because the job can be really hard emotionally.

That is exactly what "secret" means. If you can't be arsed to actually keep quiet, you need to be honest and say you can't be trusted with actual secrets.

Totally agree with the first part of your post, completely disagree with the second. Trophy hunting does not play the slightest part in sustaining the lion or rhino population, and both are not that big in numbers that the populations would have to be controlled or decimated (, which is the usual reason for hunting in most western countries).

There is no way this would be very helpful, how would they get the ages? The only way I can think of is if the kids enter it, and most kids would lie. And the ones that don't lie would be a target for pedos. The idea is just flawed.

I don't think guys get as much flak for not having kids as women do. Hence him thinking it's ridiculous. Once you hit 30 and you haven't had a fertile egg, it's open season from the mommies.
