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?

I won't say anything without my lawyer sir.

No seriously these kind of posts annoys me as most people will mostly say secretly popular opinion. A true unpopular opinion could get you potential trouble with 1/ online users 2/ the law

The law isn't trawling through lemmy (yet). They'd also often have a very hard time identifying a user as a particular person, particularly if the instance you're registered to is in a different country.
