The reactions to most posts are overwhelmingly negative and critical. Ironically, posts to c/unpopularopinion tend to argue that they agree with the post, and are consequently more supportive.

Tho they are different things I think. When the person here says a less racist country would have more of a problem with spies or I say there would be less crime with a religion sacrificing prisoners to a death god, that doesn’t mean we are supporters of those things; it means we had a thought unusual enough to share that makes sense in some way. We could want the opposite of what we are talking about. unpopularopinions implies someone has a minority stance.
Unpopularopinions is where people exchange their very popular opinions for upvotes. It’s also where people go to post opinions they don’t believe for the same endorphin hit
