As long as I've been visiting here, the herd mentality has been fairly common, at least in certain cases. If you say something challenging the majority, it's pretty likely that once you get the first couple downvotes, the rest will continue to downvote, also. As an example, I'm at about -10 so far for asking why a post, which I can only assume is from the CEO of a popular startup, is actually interesting. Obviously, I missed some other post in the last few days that provides context, which is apparently more of an egregious crime than I anticipated. I stand by comment, though.
