perchance how am I trolling? Do we as men lack civil rights? legal rights? the right to vote? are we chattel/slaves/property? Can we not own property?

Men's rights are for men who have tiny cocks, or who simply want something to moan about. another "controversial opinion"..lol.. seemingly you're just some arrogant retard, and judging by your avatar, my suspicion is dead on....

You clearly are bothered for a response, or else you would have ignored it.


You can say whatever idiotic nonsense you like.

nice logic there...but then no, your intent is clear, but i'm not really bothered either way. i don't care if you think i cannot post here lolol...
1) I don't agree with a lot of charities. Eg wateraid/bill gates thing. They give water to African children in villages. This means they don't die of thirst. Then all these kids grow up and give birth to many more children.
Now the charities can't support this many people and many more children suffer/ die of thirst/disease. If you want to live in luxury like the UK/US, we pillage the earth and take advantage of the 3rd world

2. Higher education should definitely not be free. I also think many degrees are a waste of time. A relative of mine studies English lit and only has timetable on mon/tue
people studying these subjects(history etc.) could easily learn just as much reading a couple books a week and doing online courses. A degree is just a silly formality for many humanities. And then of course graduates in these subjects complain about debt/lack of jobs... Smh


3) people who are very pro environment and promote recycling etc. But then have 3 children in a western society. The carbon footprint of these children's lifetimes will be so huge, you could take a plane to LA and back everyday and it still wouldn't do as much damage.

You want to help the earth? Do research on cutting edge technology/efficiency or try to release a dangerous pathogen to make lots of people infertile

Whats your reasoning behind number 2. As I think a well educated work force would improve the economy, for example we have a shortage of Engineers and IT specialists. So If we could intice Young people with the option of a free degree to study these subjects. Wouldn't that be better than outsourcing from abroad and create more employment.

Yeah, I suppose I would agree on free tuition for STEM students (funnily enough that is one of UKIP's policies).

But engineers, software and the like, have like the highest salaries of all jobs bar law/finance. So student loan isn't that big of a deal tbh. Well unless one is going into research.
But yeah as long as it is only accredited STEM degrees, would definitely pay off in the long run for the UK and its technology industries

Traditional beings fascinate me
I agree. I don't see how it's any different to promoting anorexia, or glorifying smoking as cool and attractive. Yes it is ultimately their decision to do those things, but it should not be promoted or encouraged. It sends out a completely wrong message, and I think it's a case where "think of the children" is a pretty valid argument.

You wouldn't bully someone who was anorexic - but you wouldn't just let them continue that way and say there is nothing wrong with that. You'd at least try to do something about it or get someone else to.
My controversial view is that many Sunni Muslims agree with isis on the sly. They are like 'the silent majority' giving no comment but actually agree with some/most or even all of what isis is doing.

This is coming from a Muslim btw

feminism nowadays is a load of bullcrap
JSA should only be paid for a max of 2 year unless you have worked for a reasonable amount of time.
I think that in poor countries where people are having children which they cannot look after sterilisation should be offered and the person gets paid to get sterilised. I think it's sometimes necessary
Jails should be stripped to the bare minimums like pre Victorian times. No electrics, hardly any free time, no recreational activities just 30 mins of fresh air a day and a room to themselves with just four grey walls, a concrete bed and a dim light.

Don't want to face the punishment, don't do the crime!!!

That won't solve any problems though, prison should be about rehabilitation not punishment. Studies have shown time and time again prisoners who are treated like dirt and given no support inside or outside of prison are more likely to re offend. So in the short term it may satisfy your need for petty revenge, but in the long term it's not stopping the crime cycle. Just look it up, the countries with the lowest re-offend rates treat their prisoners like human being beings and most importantly re-rehabilitate them both inside and outside of prison.

Yeah, if I could speak the language I wouldn't mind moving to the Netherlands or Sweden or somewhere. They're fantastic countries.
Immigration has gone too far that it puts the UK at risk
