There are certain topics which you are expected to rabidly detest without question. Anything less than sheer, frothing-at-the-mouth, hatred will get you down votes and replies telling you why nuance is fucking stupid and you should just blindly hate with the rest of the hivemind.

A few examples:

AI

Bitcoin/crypto

The word "retarded"

Brave browser

Any of Elon musk's companies. Not just the man himself, but Tesla and SpaceX as a whole.

Most religions; unless they are associated with minorities, then they're precious flowers that should be respected.

Reddit

Google

Microsoft

Personal cars as a means of transportation

Yeah my list of off limits topics matches yours. Go against the flow with these and you'll be as at -25 before you know it.

And rightfully so with most of those.
