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?

        I think the odds are fairly good, but I’m also just not concerned about my legacy. If after I die the world is overrun with morons a la Idiocracy I won’t be around to lament it.

            Outside family and friends, not much. And certainly not enough to police how future generations behave. If the only humans left 100 years from now decide to make it something I’d hate, that’s their right. The dead can’t lord over the living

            Setting aside how needlessly passive-aggressive your comment is– most people don’t care about the world at large. They care about their family, their social circle, their tribe/in-group, but not the world at large. Otherwise climate change wouldn’t be as big of an issue in the first place.

                Then you did a very poor job of making that point through your (presumably rhetorical) question.

                  If you look at the reply from the person I was actually talking to, you will see that they do not care for the world as a whole. I was not making the point in the comment you are referring to, I was just replying to that person.
