A couple come to mind. I made a post about how this it's a very suburban white American thing to insist every kid should have their own bedroom when that's not anything close to normal historically. This was inspired by a friend of mine who is buying a house that has two more bedrooms than people (and they're not having any more kids). Not to mention I'm old enough that I have friends who have multiple kids and everyone thinks it's just beyond the pale to force kids to share a bedroom, even if the parents can't really afford more rooms. I stand by my position, but you all seemed to really not like this one.

I also said the Falklands should go back to Argentina, because fuck Nonce Island and the whole idea of overseas colonies. It's also a military weakness for Argentina that the UK (and so by extension the US/NATO) has an island off it's a coast. OTOH, Argentina is also a settler colonial nation so it's not like they have a "right" to it either. And yeah, about 2,000 people live there now and presumably they would have to either become Argentinian or move back to the UK. So it's admittedly a mixed bag.

So what are your least popular takes? This is all in good fun so I'll remove any comments that try and make this a struggle session.

    Celebrating Dorner is pretty wack especially considering how hard he appealed and you know, killing the daughter of his lawyer and her fiance (not cops). The cops he did kill was during shootouts and not part of some targeted, vigilante-esque move. He's also still, you know, a cop? And oooo wow he filed some paperwork after watching someone get kicked in the face what a hero

    0 tears shed for the officers he killed and burning down the cottage he was in was messed up but ACAB means ALL COPS
