Appropriate community to get an unpopular/controversial political opinion/rant off my chest?

What do you all recommend? !GoodOffMyChest@lemmy.world? Something else?

Edit: removed !UnpopularOpinion@lemmy.world from the possible comms because their rules state NO POLITICS.

Post it on 4chan, then put a screenshot in !Greentext@sh.itjust.works
On a more serious note, !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world

If it boils down to "different people are bad and wrong", get it tattooed on your face instead so everyone knows to avoid you

Nah, it's nothing like that. It's a much more general point, bigger picture / historical perspective kind of thing that I feel many (most?) people are being blind to.

!rant@lemmy.sdf.org?

Though unpopular political opinions won't bring you far on Lemmy.

Thanks. I looked at that one too, but it didn't seem very active.

I realize that, but there's just something I need to express, precisely because there's so much groupthink on Lemmy.

Well, how is a community supposed to get activity when people look at the activity and decide against posting there? Be the change you want to see in the world!

That's a good point, and it's in my own instance. I will consider it after I review all the available options. Thanks.
