Umm, I don't know if these are really controversial
Purely because it's considered "controversial" these days, fuck knows why, not wanting to throw secularism under the bus for the sake of ass-kissing particular religions.
Being openly against multiculturalism as a political ideology (not as a social lived experience) and cultural relativism
Might sound antithetical, short of burkas (which I understand the dislike for) I hate the policing of Muslim womens' clothing. Telling Muslim women to unveil makes you no better than the people who force them to veil.
Believing that people who were adopted, or were born through surragocy or sperm donorship, have the legal right to know who their biological parents are.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
