The name of the community is Unpopular Opinion. Try to list an authentic one and see what happens. It gets downvoted.
If it is unpopular and you don’t agree with it you downvote it. The community name is not “Edgy Opinions That Aren’t Mainstream That I Agree With”
If you don’t believe what I am saying to be true I’ll give you an example.
Try to post this:
Dogs in shelters should be euthanized and the meat should be used to feed various farm livestock.
That will get downvoted and you know that to be true.
Let the downvotes for this post commence!
People want unexpected controversial unpopular opinions. By way of example, “videogames are not fun” might seem generally unpopular but then the post gets a ton of comments corroborating the idea. Seems like those get the most attention.
There’s definitely an element of triviality that makes it fun.
“Pizza is the worst kind of pie” “Fish are better pets than dogs or cats” “I love Nickelback”
If someone came in and said something truly unpopular, but actively harmful to a particular group of people or antagonistic, of course it’s going to be downvoted.
This isn’t a community meant as a soapbox for hateful or cynical opinions, it’s a community meant to be entertained by people with weird but passionate opinions.
