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.
