I agree with you, and thus have to downvote?

Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I feel like this would be a popular opinion amongst the Lemmy general demographic but then some psychopath below proved the opposite to be true.
I find the use of "Legos" more triggering, the plural is Lego ffs.
Wouldn't you add an "e?"
Legoes
No, that is equally abhorrent. It is a brand name, you don't add anything to pluralise.
Roombas
Teslas
Burger Kings
Band-Aids
I do agree that "Legos" is wrong, but it's not because you don't pluralize brand names in this way.
Yeah, this one definitely deserves to be unpopular. They've always been minifigs, they'll always be minifigs, you don't mess with perfection.
