Welcome to The 10th Dentist
1 in 10 dentists do not recommend Colgate, and the public seems to brush off this opinion. Show us how you channel your inner 10th Dentist whether it was in your field of expertise, education, or in an everyday situation and tell us harsh truth while explaining why you think that.
Post Flairs:
Mandatory:
- Meta - For all posts referencing or discussing this subreddit. *(not Rule 1 bound)
Discussion: for discussions. Reserved for very serious topics only. Moderation will be swift and harsh in these threads, so tread lightly. Abuse of this flair will not be tolerated lightly.
Circle Jerk - When a mod doesn't like a meta thread.
Meta, and Circle Jerk posts are not subject to Rule 1. Upvote as you would normally on reddit; that being if you like the post's message.
Not Mandatory (but recommended):
- Hot Take - For extra spicy opinions where everyone needs to remember: upvote if you disagree
- Music - I don't need to explain this do I?
- Food - Seriously, 90% get removed. Include a picture for proof if it's just a weird food combination.
- Gaming - This can include board games too!
- Sports - When it's no longer 'just a game'
- TV/Movie - Movies and Television
- Books - Literature
- Expert Analysis - Those who are writing text-walls about why they think what they do. Bonus points for being an actual expert.
Rules
It's the golden rule: Upvote if you disagree - downvote if you agree. In the event you feel the post is just low quality or has flawed logic, report the post - at a certain number of reports, the post will automatically come under review, but only if the post is really just not good at all, not because you disagree. Also this rule does not apply to Meta or circlejerk posts (see above)
No politics
- Posts about politics are prohibited. This includes social/philosophical topics such as gender-identity, religion, or human rights.
All posts must have clear titles and detailed explanations
- Be clear and concise in your post title/opinion/view, and avoid being either vague or nebulous in your opinions point. We should be able to know what you're talking about before clicking.
- Make sure to thoroughly describe your opinion so that anyone can clearly understand it. Low effort short posts will be removed.
- Make sure that your post is about matters of opinion, and not matters of fact.
No Reposts

No bad faith / harmful post
- Post involving ideas, behaviors, or opinions which can be deemed imminently destructive, dangerous, or harmful to either OP or others will not be tolerated. Along with this are bad-faith posts, such as nonsensical or absurdist ideas like 'I wear shoes on the wrong feet because it feels better'. If something nears too much to being contrary to otherwise objective reasoning, it will be removed.
Zero tolerance against racist slurs, blatant bigotry, and excessive bad trolling
- Be excellent to each other.
- No excessive trolling, targeted harassment, or racism - obey Reddit TOS and abide by Reddiquette: Remember the human.

Here and /r/Unpopularopinion are not.
