This comment contributes to the discussion, I don't understand why it's being downvoted.
- tomcam 8y agoAgreed, this is disturbing. I read it twice just make sure I hadn’t missed any reason for the downvote.
- vidarh 8y agoIt's a politicised subject; there will always be some downvotes. It will usually self-correct relatively well.
- dang 8y agoPlease don't break the guidelines by going on about downvoting. Instead, if you see an unfairly downvoted comment, simply give it a corrective upvote and move on. Other users will typically do so too—but comments like this one linger on, orphaned and meaningless. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- simias 8y agoFair enough, I just get irrationally annoyed when I see thoughtful comments be downvoted but you're right, I won't do it again.
