unpopular opinions (doesnt have to be kpop related)

[yunaing]

wtf?

They posted images like that everywhere. Some more gory than others. I contacted a mod so all we can do is wait

 

[yoyoyeol]

unpopular opinions I have

• humans are actually super weak, like without our brains we would be at the bottom of the food chain
• people who research things that happened millions of years ago are phonys (why are you telling us dinosaurs existed with no solid proof?)
• middle school and high school teachers need to get off their high horses and stop acting like they know everything

wouldn't any species be useless without a brain...?

You need your brain to tell yourself to move and think. Without a brain all species would just sit still. There would be no reproduction.

I'm so confused how there's no proof of dinosaurs-

 

[TaeBora~]

I'm so confused how there's no proof of dinosaurs-

Agreed, they have found fossils and bones (so many bones they can make the whole animal)

Now I don't believe they have everything factually correct, but I do believe they existed at some point

Exactly. I definitely agree that not everything is correct, because of course there's room for error in that span of time lol. But yeah I'm not sure what was meant by that, dinosaurs definitely existed
Side note, I would cry if they weren't. They're so cool-

 

[yoyoyeol]

Wh- What do you mean no proof-

ok mayyyybe "no proof" is a bit much, but "very little proof". bcz like if you think about it, most everything we know about dinosaurs are just made up. So we have fossils. ok. how do you know the fossils are supposed to be put together like that? how do you know dinosaurs roared and shit yknow? thats what I mean

Because the way fossils are found. Some dinosaurs bones have been found intact. And no, you're right, we don't know if dinosaurs roared, but scientists never claimed they did, that came on its own from the Jurassic franchise. Fossils are also more than just bones. We have eggs, feces, prints, skin impressions, etc. We also have 3D imaging now such as CT scans. Do scientists have everything right? No, but they have a lot of tools at their disposal to help them find more information /g /nm /nay

 

[Elphelt_ᴠᴀʟᴇɴᴛɪɴᴇ]

Nah dinosaur's aren't real just because they "found" proof doesn't mean it's real I don't believe anything that scientists say

ok but how do you KNOW they're in tact? I mean its not like the scientists were alive millions of years ago to confirm that yes, that is in fact how dino bones should look. (also this whole debate thing is kinda cool, we should have a thread for this )

the way the internet treats being gay, mentally unwell or neurodivergent pisses me off.

Sorry this was triggered by a video that was like “if your favourite colour is green, you’re probably gay”

I get it’s a joke but it’s not a funny one. Like there’s 0 laughability to it. It’s basically just enforcing stereotypes.
The colour green has absolutely nothing to do with anyone’s sexuality. No colour has ever had anything to do with sexuality.
Sexuality is sexual interest. That’s literally what it means. It’s not an aesthetic or a club. Lgbtq+ people are PEOPLE. We all have different interests, hobbies, likes, dislikes.
The reason I hate videos like these is because when I came out to my mum, the response was basically “I doubt it, you don’t seem gay”. And videos like these make me feel rejected by people who are suppose to understand who I am.

Mental health and neurodivergency is slightly different. It’s more about trying to diagnose people online with very blanket statements. I’m not diagnosed with anything so I don’t wish to speak on behalf of people, but whenever I see videos trying to help diagnose people they use VERY basic statements that could apply to ANYONE. It’s annoying and confusing for people like me who now don’t know if their behaviour is normal or a sign of something

THIS ANNOYS ME SO MUCH
Like jokes like "That's so gay" are so annoying and actually hurtful to those of us who are LGBTQ+

Great idea in theory but given some of the people on this forum that idea would go very sideways very fast

tbh I never did get why certain colours/everyday things were associated with gay or pride...

Kpop idols deserve more privacy(there has been some improvements but there is still a long road ahead).Not everything about them have to be uploaded.
Harry potter isn't good.
How some people on the internet view being depressed or suicidal as cool.

pepsi = coke
there's, like, a one ingredient difference. if you put them in unlabeled cups and gave them to someone, they couldn't tell the difference bc there basically are none. coke is just cooler for aesthetic purposes

I'm not sure about regular pepsi and coke but the diet versions taste much different to me.
Diet pepsi is sweeter while diet coke is more bitter.
