Which reminds me of the devil's dictionary definitions:

Endless loop. See: Loop, endless

Loop, endless. See: Endless loop

So-called 'unpopular opinions' are often very popular opinions but media and political groups are performing widespread subversion.

"Subversion (from the Latin word subvertere, 'overthrow') refers to a process by which the values and principles of a system in place are contradicted or reversed, in an attempt to transform the established social order and its structures of power, authority, hierarchy, and social norms." (Wikipedia)

Populism anyone?

I dislike typing on them. I dislike social media which seems to be the most popular use for them. I dislike the common assumption that everyone has them. I dislike seeing people using them while driving. I could go on...
