I was downvoted first, and then edited it. Way I see it, what I responded to is flamebait, and what I said it common sense. I think it says a lot you're trying to spin it the other way around. No, no one wants to get his comment downvoted and cry about it. That's an assinine misrepresentation. But what could I expect from the permanently offended brigade.
- saagarjha 3y agoSeems pretty familiar to me. First you post something that you want to say and hope people agree with it. They don't, so you then put something on the end like "the woke liberals disagree with this". Obviously this just makes everyone upset, both the actual woke liberals and people who are not woke liberals but don't care for this kind of drivel, and they downvote you even harder. Then you can point at your comment and now go "I was going to speak something profound but the woke liberals brigaded it. Obviously it would be upvoted if they didn't come here and target me!"
- 3cats-in-a-coat 3y agoI'm from Europe, and I neither think in terms of "woke liberals" nor "rightwing conservatives". I speak what's common sense, and of course I notice afterwards what seems obvious in retrospect: certain topics are highly politicized, leading to atypical score (you'll notice I almost have no negative score on my comments). And yes this makes an impression on me, am I allowed to notice or not?
