Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.
Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

Did you ever notice that all the really dangerous legislation - Patriot act, restrict act, Iraq war resolution, et al, are always bipartisan? They’re keeping us distracted with culture war stuff while they work towards the same goals. Democrats exist to create the illusion of a better alternative.
Almost all of those massively bipartisan bills like that involve classified information that builds support as meetings are held behind closed doors. As times has gone on, more and more information related to 9/11 has been declassified and talked about and the truth of the matter is there are a lot more real threats that are caught then we know about.
I used to be fully on the side of these things being 100% wrong, but I’ve weakened that stance a bit in the twenty years since 9/11. I think we have to be more realistic about it. Look at how much people criticized the Bush Administration for not stopping it?
