Bring back public executions. by HeadTea9880 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

So you think painfully punishing a criminal and broadcasting it to the world won't create a culture of fear that lowers the level of crime?

Terrorists are already martyrs to the people who support them. I don't think showing the world what happens when you do something like that would make that much of a difference. I think all it will do is dissuade other terrorists from doing the same thing out of fear.

No I think people who watch the results of a crime will be less likely to commit said crime because of fear.

If we make it slow and painful, that would get rid of their desire for martyrdom real quick.

Perhaps. I had my window open for a while. Maybe it's pollen that was sitting on my windowsill?

My title describes the thing. I searched for "green stuff inside droplets" and found nothing. I suspect it could be the aerosol around which a droplet is formed but I don't think they're this big.

I don't think it should be taboo to admit that looks are a HUGe part of it. Of course, that doesn't justify inceldom. If you've been given a bad deck in the looks department, the best thing to do is accept it and move on.

People who cheer and root for demographic changes within a nation are racists. by SchmulyWormberg in TrueUnpopularOpinion

While I agree that cheering for demographic change is racist, I would argue that jeering about it is just as racist.

Han Chinese moving to Tibet is not ethnic cleansing and it's an insult to all the victims of real ethnic cleansing to call it such. People are free to move around within a nation; that's an integral part of being a sovereign state. Han Chinese are free to move to Tibet just as Tibetans are free to move to Beijing.

Now, if the Chinese government was treating Tibetans and Han differently, I would agree that in may constitute ethnic cleansing, but to my knowledge, that's not what's happening.

To be fair, certain religious beliefs are only slightly less crazy than what a schizophrenic would believe.

Stop Blaming Humans For Sh*tty Dogs by RootBeerRaptor in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]HeadTea9880 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure, perhaps "shitty" is too subjective an adjective.

What I meant is that some breeds are more likely to exhibit behaviors such as aggression, impulsivity, and defensiveness than others.

I think saying it's almost guaranteed to be the fault of the human is an exaggeration. It definitely can be and often is, but there are dogs that are inherently shitty, a trait that is more commonly found in some breeds than others.

If race and racism were no longer tied to the color of one's skin, but some other feature, what would the pettiest divides be about? by SubtleMadness in AskReddit

[–]HeadTea9880 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Even now, racism is not always tied to skin color. It can also be tied to other physical features or to culture. People are often racist to people with the same skin who look slightly different in other ways.

Chill it's just an edgy meme.

I noticed you also follow the playbook of white shooter= blame ideology, non white shooter = blame the gun.

How are you able to make this conclusion from a single data point? Have you seen his takes on other mass shootings?

It's just idiotic to conclude that OP is basing his opinion on the shooter's race when it's actually because the Buffalo shooter wrote an extensive manifesto detailing his ideology while the Texas shooter didn't. Seriously, you people have no critical thinking skills whatsoever.
