I get downvotes for stuff that seems odd from an intellectual person trying to have a discussion. I don't know if it's a bot searching for keywords, or just someone with a grudge with several accounts or legit downvotes. I don't let it silence me though. I mean numbers (karma) are just 1s and 0s. Ideas and honest discussion are much more than that.
Whatever happens speak your mind, you've earned it by existing. Don't get discouraged by downvotes. The future depends on it.
