About this beautiful mess
Welcome to Pickaside
Pick A Side is the internet's low-stakes parliament for high-stakes nonsense. We throw a hot take in the middle of the room, you vote Yes or No, and everyone feels slightly more dramatic than necessary.
Think democracy, but with fewer suits and more debates about pineapple pizza, socks with sandals, and whether cereal is soup.
Legal-ish disclaimer
We take absolutely no responsibility for the world's opinions, your cousin's weird take, or any friendship damage caused by voting "No" too confidently.
Frequently Argued Questions
Is this science?
No. This is democracy in sweatpants. Results are fun, but we take no responsibility for their accuracy.
What happens if my opinion loses?
You gain character, regroup, and come back swinging with a better argument.
What happens if my opinion wins?
You earn bragging rights, take a victory lap, and pretend this is peer-reviewed.
Can I submit my own hot take?
Absolutely. Stir the pot responsibly at the submit page.
Do you moderate every opinion?
We keep things playful and remove obvious bad-faith chaos. You can debate hard without being a jerk.
How do I contact you?
Summon us responsibly via the and we may get back to you.
Why can I only vote once per IP address?
Because democracy is fun, but vote-stuffing is not. One IP, one vote, one dramatic opinion.
What if I live with other people under the same IP?
Then you must hold a local referendum at home first. Winner gets the sacred right to cast the official household vote.
Can I use a VPN to vote more than once?
The internet is a chaotic raccoon of a place. We live with that as one of the charming imperfections of online democracy.
Can this fix world politics?
No. But a global consensus on whether pineapple belongs on pizza would be as important.
