Hot, Bad & Unpopular Takes

[DFL]

Mick Jagger is ugly as hell. Someone has to say it.

[Sestak]

The best presidential or VP candidate in 2016 was Bill Weld.

[Starry Eyed Jagaloon]

Nancy Pelosi is a wonderful person and politician.

[wxtransit]

Bobby Jindal.

This would be unpopular if this was 1968, but it's 2018.

along with pest exterminators specializing in geese?

(forum-only but this is pretty obvious already). Tulsi Gabbard and Dennis Kucinich are great politicians. Not without flaws, of course. But much better than their opponents.

the only reason he gets name-checked in songs a lot as a symbol of sex is because his name rhymes with "swagger". Nobody actually thinks he is sexy - even in his prime he was at best held an unconventional attractiveness.

It is basic decency/politeness to behave in a somewhat urgent manner in public.  You might not be running late to work or to pick up your kid or to get your mom at the car dealership, but somebody else might be.  Acting totally leisurely when doing non-entertainment activities like driving a car or checking out at the grocery store is such a dick move.  Someone who, for example, takes 2-3 seconds to accelerate when the light turns green or is in no rush whatsoever to wrap up their transaction at the checkout stand is infuriatingly oblivious at best and downright self-centered/rude at worst.

there should be a worldwide government. Or, to be more precise, we already live under a world elite that is fragmented, shadowy and undemocratic; so a transparently elected government should be formed to tame them all. I think we have a problem that we automatically associate "one world governments" with nightmarish dystopias that crush humanity, but when we critically re-examine these assumptions there is no reason to think that a global government would be any more likely to collapse into despotism than nation-states.

[President Johnson]

Germany should have majority voting so that all other parties beside the center-right CDU/CSU and center-left SPD become irrelevant. And the parlamentary system should be replaced by a presidential one, similar to the US but without an electoral college.

I want exactly the opposite for the US. Want to trade?

How is this an unpopular opinion? only a blind person could think he's attractive.

wtf? you think only the forum hates Gabbard and Kucinich?

I wonder why neither of them are President then

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

I wonder why neither of them are President then

Well, Gabbard has only been eligible since 2016 (a year in which she didn't run) and Kucinich lost the primary when he did run, and even if he didn't, he wouldn't be the incumbent, since the last year he ran was 2008.

I have to say I'm personally weirded out by his foot fetish, eating the booty like groceries is one thing, but when you're (presumably) sucking on someones toes, that's just out there man. 

[AtorBoltox]

Woodrow Wilson was a great President. Not an unpopular opinion in the real world, but on atlas it is
