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 cannot forget the one trillion gorillions that Russia and USSR genocided. Truly one of the revisionist history moments of all time!

    But I struggle to remember Native American genocide, and dozens of genocided countries in the past century.

      Russia is currently killing Ukrainians wherever it can. USSR killed millions of people, their own or otherwise. US massacred native Americans and did some really fucked up shit in other countries. So did Russia. Why do you turn this into a political discussion? This is not “US is perfect, Russia sucks”. I don’t live in US and don’t even like it. But a proven fact remains that Russia and USSR (especially under Stalin) were and are a warmongering country with really high kill count.
