You'll be downvoted for saying this.

EDIT: just as I'm being downvoted. The echo chamber cannot be called out.

EDIT: the guideline of not discussing downvotes hardly applies here!!

HN guidelines

I think they meant it doesn't apply on this entire page. Which seems reasonble, since the whole thread is about posts ranked by commenter's karma, which is a direct reflection of votes. How could "not discussing downvotes" be an appropriate guideline in a discussion specifically about comment votes?
