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?

Setting aside how needlessly passive-aggressive your comment is– most people don't care about the world at large. They care about their family, their social circle, their tribe/in-group, but not the world at large. Otherwise climate change wouldn't be as big of an issue in the first place.

    My point is that we should care about the world at large and we should lead by example.

    Then you did a very poor job of making that point through your (presumably rhetorical) question.

    If you look at the reply from the person I was actually talking to, you will see that they do not care for the world as a whole. I was not making the point in the comment you are referring to, I was just replying to that person.
