It's also funny that people are ready to downvote anything they do not agree with. Let me explain to you how it works - the downvote button is a tool that should serve to mark comments that are unnecessarily inflamatory or provide no value on their own. This is not a toy for you to remove opinions that you do not agree with. For this unique situation in which the whole world somehow does not agree with you, please use the hidden "reply" functionality. I know it's hard to imagine that something that you FEEL is wrong might be true, but it's just such a cruel cruel world that we live in.

People are downvoting you because you are being controversial and you know it.

That's exactly my point. Why would someone downvote because he finds an opinion controversial? Offensive, unrelevant, I can understand. Unpopular, controversial? That's pretty much how echo chambers are made. Is omeone wants to hear the same opinion fot the rest of his life, then he can write it in google calendar and send it as notification every day. No point in going in a public space and trolling.

"Eschew flamebait. Don't introduce flamewar topics unless you have something genuinely new to say. Avoid unrelated controversies and generic tangents.
Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something."
It specifically says to make critical comments and to avoid only unrelated controversy.
