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 doesnβt 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/

That's a lot of assumptions π Almost all of which are completely wrong
I don't care if your butt hurt, stop whining and look inward
You don't need to kill, period.
So you're just going to put a live cow on a bun and call it a hamburger?
You don't need cow meat to live
OK, so what? I like meat
I like cocaine, but that's not a reason to do it
For less people to die and to preserve nature so it doesn't fuck itself over, yes, it is necessary to kill.
Unfortunately our ancestors replaced a lot of apex predators. And don't even get started on "reintroduce apex predators" as if you could introduce wolf pacts into European population centers.
Educate yourself instead of having these simplistic and childish outlooks.

There were times my ex and I wouldn't have eaten or suffered from malnutrition of it hadn't been for hunting and raising our own food, vegetables included.
and that is a natural, beautiful, reason to kill for food. I have utmost respect for those who have to hunt their food, not for obese idiots buying slabs of hormone filled trash that gives them cancer
