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?

No, that’s not unpopular.
Saying that every single Nazi should have been killed is.
Every nazi party member, every soldier, every sympathizer, everywhere in the world.
That would have included Nazi supporters in the US, all the nazi scientists that got a clean slate by agreeing to work for the allies after the war, every single member of their armed forces from the top to the bottom, and every civilian that worked for them voluntarily. That’s the only way to come close to eradicating something like what the Nazi are. You can’t let a single one survive to pass on their beliefs, so you end up killing people that didn’t believe in it as a side effect.
That’s why it’s an unpopular statement.
It would have also included a fuckton of people who had nothing to do with naziism but were disliked by someone with the power to decide who was a Nazi. And probably also a whole separate fuckton of people who fell into some bucket that was arbitrarily “close enough” to naziism when the original Nazis were running out. Etc etc
Yeah, thats actually a good point. Its really abusable. Basically just witch hunts.
Yeah that’s the problem with systematically killing tens of millions of people, sure.
Because sometimes some non-bad people get caught in the death machine that would otherwise be no problem.

Yup, that’s why people dislike the opinion. I still think not doing it was a bad mistake.
In the end not really that much better than the Nazis.
Yup, I agree.
