I have no issues with your original comment. But in regards to your "why the down vote?" question, HN's guidelines state:
> Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading.
- afiori 6y agoI somewhat disagree with this interpretation, I see more as using the votes as part of the argument "considering the downvotes you are wrong" and similar. In this case he got the signal that many people disagree with his message but cannot understand why. It is one thing when you make a controversial statement and then decide to attack downvoters, it is a different thing if you are trying to understand how and why people disagreed with you.
