My most downvoted posts here were agreeing with Hillary Clinton in an interview where she said in a personal interview, not a campaign event, that left wing voters need to “get over it” (infighting during election season) and support then-candidate Biden because we only get 2 choices and if we don’t we’ll end up stuck with another Trump term.

Under a news story of a youth who fatally injured himself while playing with a gun, I got 38 downvotes but a lot more upvotes.

I am apalled to see the comments here making light of the death of a child with their “win stupid prizes” schtick.

Instead of talking about access to gun safety education if kids are in a gun household. Instead of reminding parents about the absolute necessity of gun safes. Instead of calling for gun reform so kids can’t get guns in the first place.

But no, carry on victim blaming, seems much more productive.

My most downvoted comment is me trolling during the US elections. My comment says that I won’t vote, without giving the context of being unable to vote due to not being an US citizen. But it would be obvious to those paying attention to my instance. https://feddit.org/comment/2935779

On reddit. I think it was a comment about how DLSS was going to make devs lazy and optimize their games less because DLSS would do the work for them. People thought I was crazy.

Here? Either an unpopular opinion or replying to a comment I misinterpreted. Nothing too bad. Reddit? I got banned from a sub because I disagreed with breeding dogs into messed up mutants that couldn’t breathe or bark right. Probably that one.

This one

Probably when I expressed support for Harris. As a “lib” I support transphobia and genocide, you see.

I mistook a VLC update for enshittification. Can’t remember what the update was about because I deleted the comment lol

Any time I point out that nuclear energy from new plants is really fucking expensive. Some people get mad at me for pointing out basic economics.

Had to skim through a bit, but it appears to be this one:

https://lemmy.world/comment/9834772

I suggested that people could use throwaway temporary email accounts if they didn’t want to risk using their real email to register for Sony’s annoying forced PSN registration for their PC games.

I’ve shared a few hot takes here and there on Lemmy so I am surprised that this one ended up being my lowest (so far).

I don’t know if I was downvoted for angering the Sony fans by notion that there could be security concerns with PSN, or people who disliked the suggestion that they didn’t have to use their real emails to still register for an account, or both.

In Reddit, years ago, I was writing about protecting endangered whales. Apparently it was quite the pro whaling community that day. Never knew I could get more than -100 downvotes, but I far surpassed that

When I said that excessive profits are essentially stealing in the context of Steam: https://lemm.ee/post/37004161/13249135

I still stand by that comment very much. If a company makes a lot more than most other companies per employee, then quite obviously the profit margin is much higher than other companies. If the profit margin is much higher than other companies, then the price could be lowered. Steam is obviously the best and basically a monopoly which is why they can do that, but this is an example of how capitalism does not lead to the best efficiency.

I’m essentially advocating against more profit. I live a relatively poor life by choice. Almost everyone I meet calls me crazy, I rather work less than earn more money. I think one of our main problems as a species for sustainability is that everyone always wants more and more and is never satisfied. This applies individually and to companies/other organizations. As long as my basic needs like food and housing are covered, I’m happy.

Had to go and look. (don’t really pay attention to these things normally)

Wooow, 180 seconds (which probably won’t even get to timeout) when shutting down my computer. My life is ruined forever because I had to wait sooooo much. /sarc

Me dissing yet another “SYSTEMD TAKES TOO LONG TO SHUT DOWN >:(((((((” whinememe on a Linuxmemes community.

I stand by what I said. If waiting 2 minutes for your computer to shut down is so life-ruining for you, you probably don’t even know what a real problem smells like & should probably see a therapist about your lack of basic patience and frustration tolerance

“Or you can also play the game and buy the item ingame for 500RC, it’s not that big of a deal.”

About Dragon’s dogma 2’s character editor system.

They made it more lenient but I stand by what I said. I changed my characters aspect several times and I never put extra money. People were piiiiiiised about the extra one time purchase p2w stuff capcom put in the single player game, as if that was not their norm in most of their titles.

Good game, trash ending compared to the first one though.

BTW, my most controversial comment is also about DD2 LMAO:

" I’m going to be downvoted to hell, but I’m loving the game, and all the mtx and complaints about the easy to travel and such are from people that didn’t play the original, honestly. This game is like the original but better, maintaining the spirit of the original.

Yes, you could buy revival stones in the original too.

The legit complains are the performance issues and crashes, but anything else… Idk what to tell you, they knew that the slow gameplay that is expected of the player would not be well received but wanted to conserve the original feel, so if you want to bypass the original feel go for it. I won’t. "
