  People think they have an unpopular opinion because they do not realize everyone with the same opinion was censored.

    That’s the logic that ends dictators.

    I don’t know about that. People post obviously popular opinions repeatedly if they aren’t banned.

    Unpopular opinion, but I dislike the top ten Christmas songs

    Yeah, no shit. Even though they are the “top ten”.

  It’s just a list of nouns and proper nouns. Depending on what your post is, it could be a very unpopular opinion! Censoring words is why I won’t ever go back to Reddit…

    Don’t get me wrong, banning words is stupid and gives us the Scunthorpe problem and I am very glad that we have an alternative to Reddit because its just a cesspit.

    The subreddit “r/unpopularOpinions” was not full of unpopular opinions, and the words banned were obviously popular opinions because everyone talked about them until the API change and the regime cracked down.
