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?

It feels like as soon as Biden got into office a lot of people on the left threw their BLM signs in the garbage and stopped caring. Now I'm starting to see more and more on the left detach themselves from people of color and go right back to the white worship they were doing before. Every single time a person of color is now a lead in anything there's just nothing but endless controversy and both conservatives and liberals just complain

But put a white person in a lead? Nothing but sunshine and "we're starting to heal" nonsense

Really sick of it now, and it's completely soured me on wanting to vote again
