Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

People need to pay extra for their bodily excess weight. I'm done being harassed to pay for a kg more in my baggage.

How is that just, when a person being overweight isn't of their doing ? (not saying this is the case for everyone, of course)

In what cases is it not of a person's own doing? Barring medical conditions that would make them exempt (such as hypothyroidism or antidepressants).

How is it different from having extra two kilograms of medical equipment in your bag?
