It is totally counter to HN ethos to downvote a opinion you don’t agree with, and I’m disappointed others don’t give pause and ask themselves why they’re doing

It is totally counter to HN ethos to downvote a opinion you don’t agree with, and I’m disappointed others don’t give pause and ask themselves why they’re doing it first.
All the responses in this thread have been cordial and relevant, so it is disappointing to see some of them met with this kind of silent disapproval, which is reserved for non-sequitors, those acting in bad faith, or impolite speech.
- smcl 5y agoI'm particularly confused because this comment of mine is downvoted despite me agreeing with the idea that dogs should be leashed in these situations. But I understand - people get annoyed and irritated, and really it's just meaningless internet numbers at stake so it doesn't matter :)
