Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
6. Defend your opinion
This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Have you seen one in person? They look... Not great in pictures, but like... Passable as a curiosity. In person? Monstrous and ugly as fuck. Also the bare steel is just a horrible choice.
Agreed. I like the concept of the design, because I dig a cyberpunk aesthetic and I just appreciate a big, bold swing at something new on principle.
But wow do they ever look like ass in reality.
It's all about scale. If it were a classic pickup size it wouldn't be so horrible. However, it's a monster modern truck size, and it looks horrible.
They look significantly better with a wrap on them. It's more like Aztec level of ugly when they have a color.
I have seen a couple and if I knew nothing else about them, their quality, or the insane politics involved, I would feel: “Oh what, that’s a crazy design! Neat. Way too big, though. Kinda looks rusty, but maybe that’s a wrap all over it. That windshield wiper looks hella expensive to replace.”
