you can have a wrong opinion

People are always spouting garbage about how their opinion is subjective and that they’re allowed to enjoy whatever they want and you can’t say that they’re wrong. These are the same kind of people who get extremely defensive about their interests and hobbies. Instead of defending why they think said thing is enjoyable, they use the tried and true, “It’s just my opinion,” and “Why are you getting so mad over my own opinion?”

There’s nothing wrong with preferring orange juice over apple juice (even if I disagree with that). That’s a justifiable and reasonable opinion. Although, sometimes people say the most idiotic things and I can’t help but stop and wonder if something in their head is wrong. Now, I can’t disprove their opinion, because it is an opinion. I just think it’s a really bad one.

Like, if some clown says that they think beastiality is okay and should be legal. I can’t provide evidence to disprove their opinion but I’m sure that most people would not agree with this opinion, to the point where it might even be considered wrong.

Do I think that people should be shamed for an opinion? Depending on the situation, yes. You’re probably thinking that I’m a terrible human being to think that people should be punished just for an opinion, but I’m not the one making the rules. If someone posted something like a white supremacy article then I’m sure they’d be attack by a community of angry people, and rightfully so. Because even if their claims can’t be disproved, it’s still regarded as “wrong”.

Of course there are less extreme examples and some people might have a different opinion on this matter but I think you can also have a wrong opinion on something that has less to do with morals and more about tastes in media. Like if someone says that Naruto is the best anime.It’s sentences like this that makes me scratch my head and think to myself. Is this person okay? Why do they think that? Do they truly believe that what they’re saying is true? Is Naruto the only show they’ve ever seen?

Again, I can’t disprove them.

But hearing them talk just makes me think that their opinion is very ill-informed.
