Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I think we should all be equal and shouldn't have celebrities.
They are welcome as normal people, they cam create account and join discussion l, but don't give us their real name.
Reason is they are just trying to sell us something. Sometimes it is their work, which is almost acceptable, but most of the time something else.
If we are going to have ads, make them opt in and obvious, don't mask them under some celebrity's name.
100% agree. And I think it’s important to note that even with good intentions they would do that, because that’s how their life is and how they experience things. If I tell you that right now I’m reading a book or whatever you would not think I have a hide agenda. But if I’m famous and I tell you that right now I am filming a movie, everyone will feel that they are promoting that film even if it is not in porpouse.
