Controversial - the community to discuss controversial topics.

Challenge others opinions and be challenged on your own.

This is not a safe space nor an echo-chamber, you come here to discuss in a civilized way, no flaming, no insults!

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, "trust me bro" is not a valid argument.

The biggest issue humanity is facing currently is corruption of governments and corporations.

Is the controversial part of this opinion the fact that it's not controversial at all so that it will create a discussion based on its controversy?

It's controversial merely because he said biggest. I l, and most likely many others, would argue that the bigger problem is the fact that we have introduced so much greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere that life as we are now will be impossible a hundred years from now

They aren't corrupt, they are working perfectly, as designed. To keep the rich rich, and the workers surpressed.

Very controversial. I applaud your bravery.

I think the bigger issue is how to maximize individual freedom while preventing school shootings, dictators and potential oppressors from taking control of systems

You think gun control policy is the biggest issue we face?

[–] Cannacheques@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No I don't, I think every country has a host of issues, you tell me chief, what do YOU think are the biggest issues?

[–] adriaan@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

It was a genuine question.

I'm not sure if I had to pick one issue what that issue would be. Probably either pending climate disaster or the increasing centralization of wealth and power.
