In the past, I have smelled weed and it seemed acrid and a little unpleasant, but that was all. Maybe there is a new strain, or more than one, because my housemate's weed smells like baloney and unwashed balls. (Or it may actually be him.)
Animals eat animals all the time. Animals rights activists sometimes take the perspective that we shouldn't use animals in any way to serve our needs because we are not better or different from them, but if you bring up animals eating animals, they say that as humans we should aspire to "higher standards".

Some disco is fun and some is not.
Some movies that others think are bad are beloved by others. Some movies are so bad that they are fun to watch to see how bad they can get. And others are bad on levels that endanger human health.
My own unpopular opinion: People have a right to be wrong in their own homes. So, if you have racist relatives, you can tell them honestly how you feel about that. But if you are in their home, you can leave because you disagree with them but it's not your place to lecture them over Thanksgiving dinner.
