    Lets test this…

    Abortion should be illegal because that would help population grow faster, leading to more cheap labor that would benefit everyone. It should also be illegal to be gay, because gay people cannot have children and all major companies need more workers. Gay people are also not as fun to joke with during lunch. Therefore having gay people in your company will decrease the productivity of your workers.

    What steps did you take today to prevent the spread of gay and abortions?

      Well, if a proportion of people are born gay, then more abortions will mathematically lead to fewer gays, so being anti-abortion is being pro-gay.

      If you really want to test it, then you’ve got to post an opinion that disagrees with both of the two main dominant opinions and is a bit more complex rather than just staunchly for/against something.

      So say that you’re against abortion, except advocate strongly for it in the event of rape or mental disabilities. And say that you’re not against gay people, but against same sex marriage and gay people should just be celibate their whole lives.

      And if you really want to ruffle some feather, say that you don’t think pedophiles should be put in jail. Only child molesters/rapists should be jailed.
