Welcome to HN. HN is, generally, a long-form place. When you express full ideas, it's appreciated. When you express non-obvious ideas, it's appreciated. And when make meme-oriented jokes that rely on willfully misunderstanding science, technology, or the human endeavor, you can expect to get downvoted.

It's a place with its own set of customs, and I think you'll like it as you become more familiar with them.
