What’s your most controversial opinion?

[Mo_Bandy]

This is the Lit equivalent of “I’m a nice guy.”



Unrelated but somewhat related…
My controversial opinion is is that people who come into Lit drama JUST to post how much they hate drama are BAD LIARS.

I actually am a nice guy who hates drama but I think you know better than to believe my dumb shit.

Basic human kindness?

 

[Saltfountain]

Nah, people just replace religious zealotry with political zealotry. Humans are gonna human no matter how they decide to divide their clans

Preach, sister!

Re: drama.

My opinion is that I think the term "drama" more often than not is weaponised against women to keep us in line.

Our emotions and thoughts are demeaned and belittled into being OTT or unreasonable because it doesn't fit the narrative of the man.

I don't usually post shit about and to other people because I want Lit to be a fun place for me. However, I regret some of the decisions I've made in the past to keep quiet in fear of being accused of just being dramatic.

There are some truly awful people here who've managed to get away with their shitty behaviour because of this.

But I'd like to think that the tables are turning and that when anyone - man or woman or other - speaks up, they are taken more seriously.

I think one of the most awkward times is when someone's humour isn't understood or appreciated, and so disagreements occur.

But that's just my opinion. Not looking for drama.

Still say save the drama for your mama or maybe Facebook.

I’ve seen multiple women just in the last week alone say that someone’s behaving really poorly in their DM’s but they don’t want to out them for fear of drama. For all the talk of this place being dramatic, it’s really rather restrained.

I’m not calling anyone out, I get it. But this place avoids drama like the plague relative to how much drama it SHOULD have.

Religion in general just needs to go. The world would be a much better place without it

Den of iniquity

Etymology: Unclear, but probably inspired by the "den of thieves" in the KJV Bible (Matthew 21:13: My house shall be called the house of prayer; but you have made it a den of thieves), which is a calque of Latin spēlunca latrōnum.

Just sayin...

You heard it here first, these age verification schemes will result in massive personal data exposure. You might as well just post your credit card #s and government ID to paste bin.

I'm all for limiting exposure for children, but this will not turn out the way they thought when the wrote the law and kids (teens especially) will find ways around any technical control. The old men who come up with these laws are so horribly misinformed.

I think anyone who doesn't believe that, at some point, there's going to be a massive personal data exposure from all the age verification stuff is extremely naïve.

On one hand, I am ready to have a massive overhaul of all adult activity I enjoy, and on the other I'm in a "Fuck You" attitude and am ready to be "exposed". I'll defend all my perverse choices to friends, family and strangers if I have to because I refuse to be shamed and beaten down for my *personal* activities that are completely within legal boundaries of being a grown ass woman.

I understand the need to protect children, absolutely. But you're right - the younger ones will always find a way. Just like we always found a way to break rules and whatnot.

On a side note: I now cannot access any audio stories, so whilst I'm still currently able to be on the forum and read the stories, the audios are now 'dead' for me.

Your Not wrong, not only are the security requirements ill conceived they are also the biggest scam opening for criminals, no way am i putting any credit card details down.

Use a free VPN (Proton is good) and you will be able to access them again

From my 20s yo old son-

Many young people are moving away from internet everything. The data gathering and advertisements are out of control. Smart phones too. Many are going to dumb phones. He hears of this backlash all the time now.

I'm pretty much an atheist on most days, and certainly a non-Christian even on the days I'm not feeling being an atheist, but I've never seen Jesus as a negative character. Indeed, a meta-analysis of the New Testament tends to show that the Jesus character is mainly a pretty chill dude. That patriarchs of the Old Testament were not chill dudes, however... not even fucking close to chill. And too many Christians ignore their mainly peace loving, Marxist leaning hippie messiah to cling to the laws handed down from those very unchill patriarchs.

You said the reason they were called football is because the players run around in the field

So by your reasoning, hockey, lacrosse and cricket should also be called football

Are you trying to argue that association football is called football because they mostly kick the ball around with their feet? Do you have an explanation as to why the older sport of rugby football is called football despite not kicking the ball all that much? Are you embracing your Trumpian side with this sort of argument?
