Unpopular opinion time (super alpha no pony edition)

@Commune  
I think we all cringe when we look back at our younger years on the internet.

@ice1517  
For me, I don’t respect people who are religious and cram their beliefs down others’ throats, insist that their way is the only way, and use their religion as an excuse to be a bigot or an asshole.
 
Otherwise, I’m okay with people who are religious and aren’t assholes.

@ice1517  
“younger years on the internet” is the new “high school”

@TheHappySpaceman  
Oh don’t get me wrong, extremists religious nutjobs are really shit. I’m just thinking that you shouldn’t lable all religious people into the same category as the extremists.

@ice1517  
Obviously. The extremists rarely don’t represent the entire group, and I would make fun of them regardless of their religious beliefs.
 
@OptimusPrimevil  
Ha! You talk about younger years on the Internet? I have you beat: I still regret most posts I make to this day!
 
Git gud, son.

@TheHappySpaceman  
Why is that so hard for people to understand?
 
Like, SJWs do not represent all of the Left, /pol/ does not represent all of the Right, KKK does not represent all Christians, ISIS does not represent all Muslims, BLM does not represent all back people, etc.

@TheHappySpaceman  
i’m lucky if i remember what i posted.

@ice1517  
It’s like how some people were calling bronies horse-rapists after that fake story went around about a guy who supposedly painted his neighbor’s horse like Rainbow Dash and had sex with it. Even if that story was true, which it isn’t, that guy didn’t represent a majority of bronies.
 
@OptimusPrimevil  
When I do remember, I usually regret it.

@TheHappySpaceman  
if it’s a beneficial comparison, everyone’s in on it (one guy excels on sports, the whole nation is in on it)  
if it’s a detrimental comparison, “this does not represent the fandom”

@OptimusPrimevil  
Because good things are better than bad things? I don’t really think that either is fair.

@TheHappySpaceman  
more of a observation. for example:  
“come to the Philippines! our drivers are super honest.” - when news of a honest cabbie returns stuff  
“not all government officials are corrupt!” - when new corruption scandal emerges.
 
 
it’s much harsher when fandom rivalry is in play…  
“everyone who watches/likes this show are retards” - both sides

@ice1517  
Wait, BLM ?  
I mean, what ?

@Meanlucario  
I love how rivalries in sports often lead to physical fights and vandalism and such too, yet are treated as business as usual. If bronies/furries/weebs/gamers/etc routinely did those things they’d get branded even worse as menaces to society.

@ArkyNoid  
because sports fans = manly  
nerds = well, nerds.
 
when sports riots are treated as no big deal but when two nerds having a slap fight results on a permaban for EVERYONE, you know somethings not right.

@OptimusPrimevil  
I do argue the default assumption wasn’t that politicians are corrupt, dishonest scoundrels. We should allow such distrust of the government to grow completely unchecked.
 
I do very much believe there was honest, decent men and women who are politicians.

Sun Chips taste better to me than Lay’s or Doritos.

@TheHappySpaceman  
but are they better then BBQ lay’s?

@angrybrony  
Honestly, Lay’s have a bit of a weird taste to me. I don’t know how to describe it. Though I do like Sour Cream and Onion Lay’s.

@TheHappySpaceman  
>Sour Cream and Onion  
ech

@angrybrony  
Hey, I never claimed to have good taste.

I love Sower cream and onion.

@TheHappySpaceman  
well i knew that already by the music.

@angrybrony  
Hey, now piss off with that. I may not have good taste in other things, but the music that I like is an exception. Queen, the Doors, Depeche Mode, Billy Squier, David Bowie, Muse, Nine Inch Nails, Gorillaz, Frank Zappa, Rick Wakeman, Foo Fighters, Aphrodite’s Child, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, and Daft Punk–are you seriously saying that all of them are bad?

@TheHappySpaceman  
no. gorillaz are a pretty good band.

@TheHappySpaceman  
>Muse  
>Queen  
>Gorillaz  
>Foo Fighters  
>Soundgarden  
>Pearl Jam  
>GOOD TASTE
 
Nine Inch Nails and Daft Punk are pretty ballin tho and Depeche Mode aint bad.
