Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Feminism in 60s was co-opted by the wealthy and powerful as a distractionEnglish
1·2 hours agoThat’s one of those new social engineering tricks they came up with. Co-opt all the subcultures and subvert them into obedient puppets and you won’t have to fight them later.
I guess the peace movements and protests made the aristocrats feel insecure.
And now the height of rebellion is purple hair and transgenderism.

2·2 hours agoI doubt that. I think I’m being pretty clear.
But ya. Identity is a product now. Designed in a laboratory like a phone. Sold like a tshirt.
You shop for an identity then you buy it. Now you know how to think and speak. What to love and what to hate. Who is your people and who is those other people. And the people who sold it to you know where your buttons are.

Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Popular science / understanding of science by non-scientists is nothing but religion.English
1·8 hours agoAgreed. In fact 99.999% of so-called reality is just a society-generated story to which the vast majority of people conform with great enthusiasm (and woe to anybody who deviates from that story).
Those who actually interact with reality and form unique opinions are weirdos and outcasts.

Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•"Get therapy" is such a classist statementEnglish
21·9 hours agoI think that, rather than offered sincerely, it’s more often used as an insult. Especially online.

198·1 day agoSo design a couple fonts. It ain’t rocket science.
Maybe they’ve got a point.
Maybe you have been caught up in propaganda and groupthink.
Maybe. So lets try to keep our cool.
The moderator has the legal right to censor. The moderator owes you nothing.
Funny, right?
It ain’t the religion, it’s the people.
You’ve never met a smug dogmatic till you’ve met a Buddhist smug dogmatic.
I personally think the key to that door is psychedelics.




The meta meaning is that everybody’s insane now, which is classic unpopular opinion
