‘What’s a super popular opinion that you secretly disagree with?’ – 23 highly controversial statements

In the age of social media and the ability to share your beliefs with a million random strangers, people love to try and be unique. However, the truth is that it’s hard to have an opinion that differs from the norm, and an awful lot of us think along very similar lines.

However, there are some outliers who disagree with received wisdom, something that has been discussed recently on the AskUK subreddit. User GainsAndPastries asked:

‘That the English countryside is beautiful. It’s an ecological desert, nothing remotely natural about it, just endless farmland and little mounds that end up getting called rolling hills. The Lake District is the only exception I’ll make to this, the Yorkshire Dales fall squarely within my categorisation.’

‘Tea (the drink) is crap. It’s tastes ‘ok with sugar and that’s it. I firmly believe people start drinking it just because it’s what adults are supposed to do then it becomes habit.’
