A phrasing such as "the government sure feels like a sect" comes across as trollish. Without any substantiation such an outlandish claim seems designed exclusively to provoke people, rather than engage them in meaningful discussion. Edit: as a consequence, people tend to downvote instead of engage with your comment, because they don't want to feed the trolls.
