A lot of "serious questions" asked on the internet include assumptions and assertions that may or may not be true. These questions are often downvoted when people object to those assumptions and assertions.
- DiggyJohnson 2y agoWhy are you speaking in generalities when we are discussing a specific question: this one. Your comment seems akin to saying "asking questions is suspicious, especially when I disagree with the premise."
- loa_in_ 2y ago> your question seems Well it's not.
- DiggyJohnson 2y agoMy apologies I should have made it more clear. Were you advocating against "serious questions" or just explaining why they might have been downvoted?
- loa_in_ 2y agoJust explaining. It's a factual statement which I agree with. It's not making my position any way polarised or argumentative, in a way that I can see.
