A lot of readers reflexively downvote comments that have lines such as:

> I know how alarmist this comment sounds, and I fully expect it to be downvoted because it contradicts the politically-correct utopian vision of immigration that we're all expected to hold.

(Emphasis mine)

From the HN Guidelines[1]:

> Please don't bait other users by inviting them to downvote you or declare that you'll probably get downvoted.
