It's because discussing downvotes is against the HN Guidelines[1]:

> Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading.

Folks downvote comments about downvoting because it's boring to read, and to discourage others from doing it.

Well, you're now discussing about "downvoting" and by that logic, you are now breaking the HN Guidelines.
