What's some really unpopular opinion you have? (lemmings.world)

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?

Ethics are subjective.

Say, if for example someone is about to fly a plane into a Skyscraper, the cockpit door is closed tightly and you can't get in, even if the person is armed, you have a gun, you can kill the person and open the cockpit door... You would save many life's, in exchange for just one... Whats unethical about that?
