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?

      Non-human predators that hunt, kill, and eat other animals…do you consider them unethical, or is it only unethical for animals capable of inventing the concept of ‘ethics’?

      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?

      If they are attacking me, would it not be ethical of me to defend myself and potentially kill my attacker?

        Not op, but in my mind this would depend on whether you have any reasonable means of de-escalation, e.g. running away

        If not then it’s not really ethical or unethical… it just kinda can’t be judged
