I can’t see the point of getting on the internet for the sole purpose of taking somebody like say Carol Burnett, who by all accounts was a nice person, and talking about her show, which was very popular, and saying “I don’t like it or her, I didn’t find it/them funny.”

I guess I’m saying I don’t really understand unpopularopinion posts. They seem like institutionalized trolling.

Hmm, perhaps this is a unpopular opinion.

    I don’t think that’s inherent to the unpopular opinion format, a post could just as easily be a “I like this thing everybody else hates”. People can and frequently do use it just to troll, but that’s a problem with those people not the community.
