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?

While that is true, it also applies to libertarian capitalists.
Most people don’t understand economics. Because economics isn’t that sexy to be honest.
And it doesn’t help that a lot of the popular economists that one encounters in the mainstream (like Krugman,.Friedman or Mankiw) absolutely and actively engage in disinformation (which they consider education) in the service of their own political biases.
I think Economics Explained is one of the better YouTube channel brining mostly unbiased economics to a mainstream audience.

If you think Economics should only be discussed in print, you might as well buy an Ivory tower and lock yourself up there.
Economics affects people directly through economic policy, so unlike say anthropology or linguistics, people will have strong public opinions and debates on economics.
