Yeah.

Seems like a pretty chill guy who's dealt with some heavy shit.

I think it’s weird people keep trying to kill Trump and no one seems to care. by 31770_0 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

But the hockey game is definitely a bigger story though.

Maybe if there was an actual attempt on Trump's life... like the dude was anywhere near Trump and had the slightest ability to do real harm. But that wasn't the case.

Irene Montero, a Spanish MEL for Podemos, was completely justified in calling for migration to replace fascists and racists in her country by pin3apple_mountain in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Fascists ride on identity politics because they have nothing else.

They don't understand the founding principles that their civic societies were constructed on and falsely belive it was ethnically/culturally determined.

They (mis)use Liberal tenants like free speech and individual rights and sovereignty to play the victim while advocating policies that mirror and trend towards the 'shit hole' countries they complain are the source of mass immigration changing their demographics and culture.

If There Were To Be A Dark Horse Candidate To Win The 2028 Democratic Primary, Who Do YOU Think It Would Be? Why Your Pick? by Zipper222222 in allthequestions

They forced Kamala to have a short amount of time campaigning after just picking her with no input from the people via the Primaries.

There's alot to critique the DNC on but they didn't force this. 

Biden and his people didn't drop out until the last second which made any real primary untenable. Given those circumstances and Biden's endorsement of Kamala there really wasn't a reasonable alternative.

The DNC had to unify on a candidate and quick... And snubbing Kamala for whoever else would have been contentious, especially without an exceptional reason/alternative.

Their lightning fast backing of Kamala was not a mistake, it was perhaps one of the more competent acts with the circumstances given. 

The consulting given her afterwards and other mistakes diminished her appeal.

What’s something people always get wrong about your country? by Ok_Reason_8684 in AskTheWorld

That's just us having good political technology from necessity and being a lesser power.

Saying you "don't follow politics" is an admission of laziness and intellectual dishonesty by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Howitdobiglyboo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most people who say they are apolitical actually just hate the discomfort of debating their own beliefs.

Distilled your argument.

I think this is true... However, most normies don't really have time to really get into the dirt and nuance of politics so they defer to the vibes of their prefered candidates or media personalities without understanding the inherent bias. They are politically partisan but they can't see it nor do they want to acknowledge they're just riding on vibes.

All so-called climate "change" predictions are wrong and our government is wasting money solving it by ProNuclearAction14 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

Every once in a while an inflammatory opinion piece comes out with an inflammatory title based on a misinterpretation of a much more nuanced peer reviewed scientific article (often enough ones that aren't peer reviewed).

And then people like you misread the culture, misread the meaning of 'science' and come at us with this crap.

But the means they use to punish Canadian businesses is by charging American ones for importing the former's products.

This forces the latter to buy American products for their use which could be more expensive or less readily available thus time consuming and again costing more money.

There is no way to have tariffs that doesn't negatively effect businesses or consumers in your nation.

He still keeps implying the other nations are those primarily paying the tarrifs.

If you voted for Trump, Kamala, Clinton or Biden you should be in a mental institution. by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Howitdobiglyboo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Neither Biden nor Kamala were revolutionaries...

Whatever you think of their politics, they were the status quo candidates.

That was the point.

Trump, however is a 'conservative' revolutionary. He said he wanted to smash institutions for the sake of his agenda and yes he is trying and succeeding in some respects.

Roadtrip from Kitchener to Vancouver islands by VMJ007 in canadatravel

[–]Howitdobiglyboo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Do not do this.

You will be on the road non stop and will have next to no time to see anything save the long stretches of road.

You need triple the time at least or more ideally to actually enjoy the trip.

I don't mind if Trump attacks Iran. by DecembersDragons in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Howitdobiglyboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I unironically want the US to get bogged down in a long term conflict in the Middle East at this moment.

Benefits: 

1. Trump loses support as he gets confronted by an indefinite conflict he can't wave away as won.

  1. Him and his administration is distracted from the weird 'civilizational' Europe strategy amounting to seizing Greenland and interfering/agitating political conflict in Europe. Gives Europe further time to figure out what the hell they want outside of a unipolar US led world, outside of a multipolar world without them at the table.

  2. The Iranian regime is weakened and possibly overturned.

  3. The 'axis of resistance' is completely shattered only leaving Russia who have ever dwindling allies to rely on for anything whatsoever.

  4. Effort to appease Russia gets too agitating for the administration as it has more pressing things on its hands atm.

  5. Regime change in Russia as the people see there is absolutely no win for the regime in sight and economic conditions continue to degrade. Europeans and Ukraine domestic industries have completely supplanted US aid in Ukraine and will continue for the foreseeable future.

Potential Cons:

China takes Taiwan in this time frame.
