    To be honest with you, after living for about 30 plus years in this world, all I can tell you about argument is that it is pointless, compromises can be made but how long can they be uphold? The whole "peaceful times" has always been a joke to me by reading the world history, humanity strives in conflict, mostly against ourselves because that is the challenge. And when we overcome one mountain, our damaged head will have us go for another mountain or at least create a fake one to overcome it.

    Blaming the rich has always been a thing, mainly because those that are rich often have the power to affect our lives. While I do agree on the whole "they shouldn't fuck up the poor by jacking shit", it is not a solvable point considering the different mindsets of the two groups. To hell, there are some even quote that the riches are doing this in order to create a barrier of entry to their elitist group, where you sit is where you shall stand for.

    War is not a possibility but an inevitability.

    I don't see how that is an unpopular opinion considering that war has never been stopped. The espionage, the trade war, the war between countries' leading companies.

    Conflicts are everywhere, from micro like individuals to macro like countries. To hell if we find aliens, we will go into conflict with them.

    The only time the white and the black work together is to kill the green.

    Assuming that pregnancy doesn't detrimentally affect a woman's physique as well as the average woman being physically stronger than men, gender norms would likely resemble something among the lines of reversed roles. While there may be no innate change in personality, it is exactly the external factors that would make a female act more "masculine" so to speak. Human traditions die hard, and civilization began with the roles of the men being the hunters and the women being the caretakers. If women were physically stronger than men, matriarchies would have been established, turning the women into the hunters and the men into caretakers. For the same reason men thought they were the superior sex due to physical superiority, the same will happen with women in this scenario.

    To be honest, the men can't breastfeed babies, so they probably aren't even good caretakers at that, which would probably give the perspective that men are actually pretty useless aside from being breeding stock. Imagine having to take care of a baby while hunting because your species' counterpart is that much of a failure.

    I'd say personalities and ways of thought are shaped by both genetics and the environment, so I'll have to disagree with the idea of nurture being the only cause, though I do agree on the pervasiveness of it. I'm not a distinguished scientist in genetics or biology, but things like hormone levels and different brain development do have a noticeable impact. If you're good at using your hands but shit at using your feet, you aren't going to naturally lean towards improving using your feet. You're going to take advantage of your strengths. You'd only improve your foot skills if the society you live in tells you that a successful person is one that is great at using their feet. Additionally, natural processes such as puberty and menstruation would inevitably shape the society which in turn shapes the person.

    At the same time, however, the only way women would naturally be stronger than men and not be burdened by pregnancy is through genetics, so assumptions on hypothetical worlds fall apart here. It's only hypothetical, after all.

    One of the caveats of a world run by capitalism and consumerism. The self-interested individual promotes progress and competition, but compassion in business or politics will only be exploited by someone somewhere. Living and being born into a materialistic world run by money, its quite literally impossible to imagine commonplace in a world that functions without it. That brings up the question on the role of government, whether, how, and where it should endorse it or restrict it. After all, it was only through government intervention that led to anti-child labour laws as well as health and safety regulations, but it was also through government acceptance that led to slavery and child labour in the first place.

    tesla trying so damn hard to be posing from year 3022

    this was actually a funny post not sarcastically
    but ur right, fundamentally it started with women being burdened by the physique that demands stay at home cook rice
    There are some rare matriarchies left in the world like the one in china and africa. And men there are glorified breeders hahaha, well not exactly .
    If we are talking purely genetics, men are just mutated women. Nature is just by default women and women diversified inorder to bring more difference in the gene pool instead of the usual cloning/asxual repro

    And yet the Bible claims Eve was made out of Adam. Well, well, well, how the turn tables.

    And yeah, meiosis increases the chance of the continued existence of the species. But let's be honest here. If humans could asexually reproduce, the world would be in a better place if we were all clones of Dwayne The Rock Johnson.

    hmmm it not unpopular just opinion based on observation, most blabbering right wing or lift wing actually just follow fad speech similarly communist, socialist or capitalism~

    this cat never believe full free speech cuz it can cause fragmentation, disintegration, separation, polarization on country with multiculturalism~ limited free speech restrict by law and order cuz overall most citizen is dumb, ignorance, sheep or mix of it which usually relatively easy to misguided~ such thing (da sheep) may because of economy, education and information~ free speech can only apply to government, to civilians? you can beat each other or report each other~ ya reap what ya sow~

    democracy can only work if majority of the citizen :
    not bussy thinking what to eat today cuz no money~
    have certain level degree of education~
    have sufficient access to various info mainly political and country management, hmmm transparency which can decrease political ignorance~
    lack any of those 3? that good joke~

    atheist and theist are same on certain degree~ it can spawn fundamentalist which crazy bat support it own opinion not care about other~ or open mind cat~ similarly science x religion~ not believe xxx? you are pagan or religion fanatics end of discussion~ meh~

    there only certain way to enjoy coffee or tea~ infinite middle paw to that! this cat enjoy coffee or tea on this cat way! hmph! oh btw there is written law about how to brew tea or drink it? on UK or UN or somewhere on Europe~

    diamond is forever~ sure~ so do Styrofoam~ actually this cat think jewellery is worthless~ diamond, rubby, gold, silver, jade etc it just shiny stuff but this cat can't help have one or two just for emergency funds~ easy to sell~ be practical ba~

    if polygamy is ok then it should be da same for poliandry (hey hey is that da correct term?) gender equality at it finest~

    agriculture is for..... fakku that! where ya think your food come from ah! looking down on farmer is ptui!

    kpop is meh~ up beat~ da dancer is delicious looking tho~

    cat is God~ nay nay nay cat is beyond god~ it pet, toy, plushy, overlord, annoying, god and slave~

    All living things desire death in the moment of their birth, regardless of their emotions or thoughts about dying.

    Now let me sharpen my edginess. Sorry, I'm short on time so I'll reply to those I believe can understand my humor. I know, it's all vain.
    Fair enough, but we have guns~ we have guns~ So in return we should gun down animals that put down our fellow humans, right? They have their claws and jaws. We have our weapons of mass destruction. Cheers!
    You probably ate it raw.
    The rant is never over. Keep ranting. It helps spread awareness un-ironically.
    Everybody wants to know.
    An ever more unpopular opinion: Hajime actually, like actually died in that fall.
    No, it killed the problems literally. Problems come from people making it a problem. No people, no problems. No solutions were solved. They were all buried six feet below the ground. You have my condolences.
    Ahem~

    We live in a society.

    The first unpopular opinion I like is hot chocolate is better than coffee.:blobReach:
    Then there is dark humor is the best humor....:blobsmirk:
    Gen Z is the best and will drastically change the world especially the future generation's mindset. :blobxd: (This might not be an unpopular opinion but there are many people against it cause there are so many bad posts:blobdevil: saying Gen Z is bad so I'm gonna write it here)
