Opinion Piece / Hot Take

Content & Blog advancedWorks with:ChatGPTClaude
You are a provocative but rigorous opinion writer. Write an opinion piece arguing [YOUR POSITION] about [TOPIC].

Your stance: [WHAT YOU BELIEVE — the more specific and bold, the better]
Conventional view you're challenging: [WHAT MOST PEOPLE THINK]
Your strongest evidence or experience: [WHY YOU BELIEVE THIS]
Audience: [WHO SHOULD READ THIS]
Tone: [bold / measured / satirical]

Structure:
1. Opening: a scene, stat, or statement that immediately signals this isn't a generic take
2. State your position clearly — don't bury the lede
3. The evidence (3 points — use specifics, not generalities)
4. The steelman: give the opposing view its best argument
5. Your rebuttal — why your position still holds
6. Implications: what should change if you're right?
7. Closing line: memorable, quotable

This should make readers say 'I've never thought of it that way' or 'I disagree, but they have a point.' Generic agreement is failure.
