I'm a militant ethical vegan. I basically don't talk about it unless directly asked, because it's probably a fight otherwise.

Isn't that what "militant" implies?
maybe they mean they only argue and scream at themselves over their veganism?
I've dated a self-hating vegan before. She would like, get drunk, have a piece of cheese, and then go into a self loathing spiral.

"Pro-gun" - am left-of-center, anti-estsblishment, progressive US Democrat, people probably assume I'm far-right if I just say that no context
"反共" ("Anti-CCP") - Amongst Mainland Chinese, they'd probably look at me like the classroom "troublemaker", even my parents don't like me talking shit about CCP at home, we don't even live in China. Someone from a Chinese Lemmy instance probably assumed I was a white dude that hated China and Chinese people and asked why I "hated China". I had to use pinyin to type my response in Chinese, my native language, explaning I'm ethnic Chinese and born in mainland China and I only hate the party/government. Their response afterwards was quite "chill", very understanding. Amongst westerners, if I say I'm anti-CCP, they'd probably assume I'm a conservative lol, nah fam, fuck the rightwing radical lunatics and fuck tankies
Me prefering visual media over books - Lemmy seems to overwhelmingly like books better, for me, nah, partial aphantasia, hard to imagine things like someone elses thoughts, I can picture my memories quite well tho...
In my personal case, especially among the people I hang with here, my positive attitude toward generative AI seems like one of the major ones. Many people really don't seem to like it when someone mentions enjoying using these tools.
Hey, props for separating your question and response, though.
That women are vastly more interested in sex than men. To the point that it becomes a core pillar of identity.
What do guys discuss on guys night? Cars, video games, work, local politics, their kids, sports and poker.
What do women discuss on girls' night? Men, penis sizes, relationships, sexual behavior/conquest.

I’m bullish on open borders. Not lack of sovereignty, and all fully documented. But if people are emigrating/immigrating “illegally”, there’s only one real solution. Tightening borders only benefits the well-off and slavers. Poor people are well aware it is possible to be poor in an MEDC. And mostly colder.
I am a socialist in a "small" party in rural most conservative not fascist state of my nation. Soo the answer is: yes
But ironicly talking with 60+ about the topics they all agree and say they would vote for me but then between 20 year olds and gen X, complete disagreement (eventhough what i want to change is what they are complaining about) And its not just policies just my lifestyle is mocked in all kinds of ways and im just like...cooking from stratch for example used to be the way of life here...about which these villagers (intended) constantly say "city people dont know how to XYZ" but then them buying soup stocks and plastic packed meat from the supermarket instead of the butcher/cutting up the meat yourself and doing it yourself.
Its a real mystery to me. But i guess you cant argue with stupid
