Creativity Quote by Tre Cool

"Everyone is entitled to our opinion"

About this Quote

A grammatical glitch that lands like a punchline: "Everyone is entitled to our opinion" takes the sanctimony of "Everyone is entitled to their opinion" and flips it into a sneer at how discourse actually works. Coming from Tre Cool, it reads less like a philosopher's paradox and more like a band-room truth: in public life, plenty of people don't just hold opinions, they recruit for them. The joke is that the speaker accidentally tells the truth.

The intent is comic, but the subtext is territorial. "Our" turns opinion into a group property, a brand, a tribe. It's a tiny act of imperialism: your mind is sovereign territory, and I'm here to annex it. That makes it a neat summary of everything exhausting about modern argument culture, where the goal isn't understanding but conversion, and where certainty is performed as a kind of social currency.

It also works as a self-own, which is part of its charm. The line mocks preachiness while admitting complicity in it; even the most anti-establishment voice can slip into telling everyone else how to think. That tension fits a punk-adjacent sensibility: suspicion of authority, coupled with the temptation to become your own authority.

Contextually, it's tailor-made for a world of hot takes, fandom politics, and algorithmic megaphones, even if it predates the current social-media malaise. The quote survives because it captures a recognizable posture in seven words: the loud confidence of people who genuinely believe consensus is just everyone agreeing with them.
