Hi 4chan and greetings from Russia. Please, native speaking anon, help us solve a dispute. If you are manifesting against something, would it be grammatically correct to say exactly "I am against."? Or do you have to say "I am against it/against this."? It's very important! Thanks!

“I am against it/against this” sounds better

Well it depends on context, if youre saying "I am against X" for example "I am against houses" that would be correct. But if someone asks your opinion on something, you would have to say "I am against it" or "I am against *name of thing*" if you just said "I am against" that wouldn't be correct in that context

It depends if you've already addressed the subject or not.

Also important to know you would use "I am against" if the phrase were something like "this is what I am against" or "houses are what I am against" or "I am against houses" (another anon used the word houses otherwise I wouldn't be).

Usually though the conversation is about houses already and you don't have to use the word houses so you'd just say "I'm against it" "I'm against this, too" etc
