I’m a hawk on foreign policy, especially with terrorism.

You have yet to post an actual unpopular opinion in this thread.

Wrong:

- Vietnam War draft dodgers are cowards, not heroes.

We need to lower corporate tax rates. The United States has one of the highest corporate tax rates in the world, and if we want to become more competitive with the rest of the world (namely Europe), we should lower our corporate tax rates.

- The Confederacy was within their rights to secede. I believe they should've been allowed to be sovereign and free from the Union.

- Germany/The Central Powers should've won World War I.

Europe needs to stop with its open borders policies or else they'll get destroyed. The growing terrorism and rise in rapes are deeply disturbing.

so much unpopular opinions of this 1 person.

I'm going to beat all you cowards with this one: I think Ted Cruz has a sort of ugly-cute appeal to him. Kind of like the blondish.

I've long viewed Cruz as a love-to-hate character.

I agree with you, but I'd wonder if he uses that for political gain.

I'll grant it's not an exact analogy, but analogies never are. Still, the parallels are readily apparent, especially the primary one: a governing minority seeking to become a majority by dividing territory on terms of its own choosing, leaving the majority crowded into ghettos economically dependent upon the governing minority.

Revenge of the Sith is the best Star Wars movie.

It is the best of the prequels, and an argument could be made for it better than Return of the Jedi. However, there is so far no contender to The Empire Strikes Back when it comes to what Star Wars movie best is.

Return of the Jedi is the second best. Empire is third.

No, Return of the Jedi is the outright best.


As for Empire Strikes Back and what it stands for, the second season of Avatar: The Last Airbender did all that stuff better.

I can't stand the "tHIS iS wHAT dEMOCRACY lOOKS lIKE" crowd because I'm pretty sure 90% of them will forget to vote in 2018 (actual democracy), along with #resist and calling everyone a fascist.

Really represents the worst of my party.

I've been thinking that the sexual misconduct accusations against Roy Moore might have actually helped him. Moore is overall a despicable human being who was removed from the Alabama Supreme Court twice for violating court orders. That alone should have disqualified him. But now to the Alabama Deplorables, he is a victim of a witch hunt, a martyr even, and the election has been reduced to a binary choice between believing the allegations as-is with little or no investigation and an attitude of "trust, but verify".

Anyway, I think this has distracted from the fact that even if you take all these allegations off the table, Roy Moore is still a morally corrupt man who has total disregard for the rule of law and therefore has no business serving in the Senate.

Jeremy Corbyn is as trashy a populist as Donald Trump. His supporters are equally as deluded.

Arizona flips before Nevada in the senate race to me. Sinema has much more advantages than Rosen does, plus there is the potential that the DSCC does what they did with Feingold in Nevada.

How dare those dastardly Jews make a home where they can be safe from persecution and worst of all, on land that they have a far stronger claim to than any other group in human history Roll Eyes

Another unpopular opinion: good people with a single rose emoji in their name/username do not exist.
