Hot, Bad & Unpopular Takes

I'm a European-style liberal who doesn't like the EU and thinks that the US should pursue policies of fair trade along with free trade.

Doesn’t like or wants to reform? There’s a difference.

Thank you for pointing that out.

I don't like the EU in its current form and would rather it be much less about governing as a legislative, superior body and be more of a trade association.

Unpopular here: Ed Gillespie isn't racist.

Abolish Congress and the President and replace them with a Parliament/Prime Minister system with fairly-drawn districts.

I feel like the only problem, especially in America, would be the formation of coalitions. Just imagine it...

But it would allow for more parties, which would be great.

I strongly support Israel and believe Palestine is run by a group of terrorizing manipulators.

Very good that there are still Democrats like you.

This. Israel is certainly not receiving the support it used to from the party

Hillary’s email scandal is a real issue, and if you dig deeply enough, you could definitely find something even more incriminating.

Opinion seemingly growing more unpopular every day: Israel isn’t an apartheid state

[TheSaint250]

Hillary sent classified emails and probably committed some other crime(s).

[TheSaint250]

We need 1) secure borders and 2) amnesty for illegal immigrants currently in the country.

The Republican Party isn’t a “white identity” party or some other thing like that.
There are such things as moderate Republicans.
True liberalism by-and-large doesn’t exist in the United States, and that sucks.
“Far-left” and “far-right” are terms that are often misused.
Bernie sucks. Hard.
Hillary sent illegal emails and probably did a bunch of other illegal stuff.
There is no such thing as “wasting your vote.” (Ok, there are some exceptions )
Liking Greg Orman does not mean wanting Kris Kobach to win.
Marco Rubio is a great person.
Gary Johnson would’ve been a good 2016 alternative.
Socialism sucks. Capitalism, while needing some reform, is great.
Being pro-business is not bad.
The fishhook theory is dumb. (Not sure how popular this is, but I just had to get it off my chest)

Black Lives Matter is a hate group and a domestic terrorist organization.  Same goes for Antifa and the various alt-right groups.

By extension, that leads to another unpopular opinion of mine: there is not only an alt right, but an alt left as well.

Basically no one describes themselves as "Alt-left", so I'd say the alt-right is much more of a real thing for that reason alone. 

Alt-left might be a good descriptor for uber fringe Famous Mortimer-types who normally manifest themselves as Twitter eggs.  It could also be synonymous with tankies and North Korea sympathizers.

The “revolutionary” Antifa fit too

Not really that unpopular but I like saying it:

Bernie Sanders and Jeremy Cornyn suck so hard. They are by far some of today's worst politicians and must never be allowed to come close to the White House or 10 Downing Street.

Seriously, I've never been more passionate in my dislike for any politicians as I have these two, especially Bernie.

Also:

There is no "Party of Trump."

-Hillary sent classified emails and should be charged
-The Republican Party is not racist, homophobic, sexist, etc.
-For as much as I disagree with him and think he's an idiot, Donald Trump is not racist, homophobic, sexist, etc.
-The E.U. as a governing body is bad (though the single market is quite useful from what I can tell)
-Bernie is as crazy as Trump can be, just more able to do his job (which is scarier)
-Rick Scott and Marco Rubio are fine politicians and people
-Amnesty for illegal immigrants is a good idea (if they have not been convicted of serious crimes and have contributed to the American workforce)
-Voter ID laws are not racist
-If Pence is President, he will not do half of the stuff the posters on this website say he will

Seriously, talking about party registration, this website is probably pushing me further away from becoming an independent (though my beliefs are remaining intact)

This is like the fourth time you’ve posted many of those things.

Glad to see you’re consistent at least. Although I personally don’t think it should come as a surprise that you - focused on fiscal conservatism - would immensely dislike someone like Bernie. It’s not like I have a high opinion of Reagan or Thatcher.

Lol yeah Some things here just kinda push my buttons, so I guess this is where I come to "vent"

Voter fraud is a myth invented by state Republican officeholders in order to reduce Dem turnout.

(Seriously, there are at most a couple hundred cases each election per state)

Obviously, it's nothing close to the amount claimed, but if there are "a couple hundred cases" then it's not really a myth.

Alex Jones shouldn't have been banned from YouTube. He's too... entertaining. Somehow psychopath Logan Paul gets to stay, but Alex Jones (who can actually be funny with his craziness) somehow gets banned. Smh

For every 1 person who finds Alex Jones to be stupid in a funny way, there are 4 people who think he is actually saying real stuff and getting corrupted by it.

I...I don't think that's right

Obama was a terrible President.
