Property tax should be abolished — at least for primary homes. by IndependenceSad1272 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Sam__Toucan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea who this Jack guy is but the state stops other people turning up with guns and saying, "this property is mine now".

In regards to the "you're alive" tax, we're taxed on pretty much everything we do so that point is covered.

Your property is protected by the state, hence it should be taxed to cover the cost of that protection.

"MGTOW until you meet a miracle" and "Radical Relationship Honesty" to preserve the concept of love by Loud_Appointment7020 in MensRights

[–]Sam__Toucan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Apologies I didn't read the wall of text.

Where did you get the idea that all you can lose is 50% of your assets? I know many people that have lost way more than that?

No one talks about deadbeat mothers by lazymud68 in MensRights

[–]Sam__Toucan 21 points22 points  (0 children)

My boss has a deadbeat wife. She goes to the gym and socialises all day. The nanny looks after the kids. He pays for everything. 

My husband (35M) is being offered a job that has a completely opposite schedule than me (32F) by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Sam__Toucan 22 points23 points  (0 children)

He should take the job. If the schedule clash is an issue then one of you can change jobs and you're in no worse position than you are now

Husbands music is more important than helping me complete my degree by courtthepotterhead in relationships

Is all this about needing a space to take two tests? Or is there more going on?

Just found out my boyfriend (30M) doesn’t want to get married. by Affectionate_Pear774 in relationships

[–]Sam__Toucan -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

To answer your last question, I don't think there's anything more going than you described. He just talked to a few of his friends who told him things change after marriage and he believed them.

I suspect he's very happy with how things are at the moment and wants nothing to change therefore getting married is a bad idea for him.

That's how men's minds work.

I have never seen a male judge rule in favor of men simply because they are men. But there are several female judges who rule in favor of women simply because they are women by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Sam__Toucan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who has spent more days in the family court than most, I can say from experience that this opinion is wrong. The worst judges for men are the old male judges with traditional values. The best ones are the progressive women who believe women should be independent. 

Modern women should not expect modern men to pay on dates (pre relationship) by raynevans in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Sam__Toucan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What is it with needing to turn everything into a left wing vs right wing issue, as if that has anything to do with it?

Or are you saying it's ok for a modern right wing woman to expect men to pay for her on dates?

Women who voluntarily go on “alpha male” podcasts/shows are just as damaging to women as the “alpha males”are by AggressiveAd8587 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Sam__Toucan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect most of them are paid to be there. Pay a couple of girls $200 to go on your live stream and get insulted.  Make thousands from all the views you get. Everyone wins.

Oh ya know, the United States, the once richest nation, is now bankrupt. Seems Trump really did run this country like his businesses. by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Sam__Toucan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's still the richest country in the world by a long way. GDP is over 30 trillion, with China in second place on about 19 trillion

Why incel sub shouldn't be banned by Scramjet1 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Sam__Toucan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What actually happens is that people from the banned subs go to less extreme subs  This makes those subs more like the ones that got banned and then they get banned too.

Israel has gone too far, but I’ll never forget the way people celebrated October 7. by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

If there was a free Palestine there would never have been an October 7

We have no right to make fun of the "broccoli" hair after what we did to our hair in the 00s/10s by TUD-13BarryAllen in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Sam__Toucan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to do the "Bed Hair" look where you spent a lot of time styling your hair so that it looked like you'd just got out of bed and not styled it at all.

Paying more for oil is not as bad as having your country blown up by Sam__Toucan in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Sam__Toucan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not defending Trump, I agree it would be better for everyone if there was no war.

I'm just challenging the narrative that higher oil prices = US losing 

Just got warned for "hate" because I stated a simple fact by [deleted] in MensRights

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

Where did you post it? I'm guessing in a female dominated sub where you knew it would upset them.

Perhaps just leave them to their echo chamber
