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?

Nuking Japan was in proportion and in service to the United States’ legitimate military objectives.
68 civilians died in pearl harbor.
140,000 died in Hiroshima.
I wouldn’t call that in proportion.
I upvoted you because I vehemently disagree with your opinion. It’s kind of skirting the line on being straight up evil
You skipped several million deaths.
Is this actually an unpopular opinion? For sure horrible like all things in war, but I understand that the alternative was an invasion with a hell of a lot more casualties.
Should the USA have invaded Japan instead?
Yes. Unlike ground war, two entire metro full of people were killed and countless more suffered long term damages. Whatever the strategic value, this isn’t a decision that I find ethical in any way.
