>-- Edit: I have my own downvote brigade. Yay - Just seems odd that every post I post on HN gets down-voted. Respectfully, I think it may largely be because your post has many odd grammar and spelling errors, and a confusing sentence and paragraph structure. As a result, the post is difficult and awkward to read. I don't think the downvotes have much to do with the actual content of the post. The content of everything you said is obviously 100% correct. It's just - again, with all due respect - written in an especially peculiar and very grammatically incorrect way. Many of your posts seem to be like this, and I think that's probably mainly why you seem to get downvoted often. It's not what you're saying, but how you're saying it. (If English isn't your first language, I understand that it's unfair, but that's just how people seem to react.)

The additional parts that I could comprehend as strange would be the part where spiral off to and explain what CBD is. "CBD is the governor.." I did that for users who may not be familiar with cannabis. and a "," and a stray capital letter after a comma and a few words. Drat, I see them now. I can see that now. I am always happy to correct my mistakes and I do normally double check, edit, reconstruct. However if that is truly reason of down-votes and, I will admit some of my comments have been lack-luster contain down-votes, understandably. I do have a learning-disability in English then that's act of discrimination in a way. I can't call upon on those who do and so if the down-votes are truly "I can't read your text and I am not going to bother to put effort in to trying to understand, I am down-voting." is very petty of the user. However I do not think it's grammatical errors at all. It feels too coincidental, but you could be correct and if that is, then I'll work on it. Thank you for the input.
