Sure, it does happen. But I think in this case the downvoted comment is obviously going off in a way unwarranted by the comment they are responding to and that tends to get you downvoted even faster than people just disagreeing with you.

Interesting... you made this comment only 4 hours ago:

Already grayed out. No replies. Bottom of all comments at the moment.

Abrassive? Rude? Unwarranted? Let me know what was wrong with that one. Or did multiple people disagree with you? Does it make you want to continue offering your comment on a topic? Seems like people can downvote for any reason they like. Well.. they can if HN bestows that honor on them.

This is how echo chambers form.

Surely you disagree with this comment as well, so feel free to take away more of my internet points.

I can't downvote you as you're replying to me. Not that I would anyway since I'm the one arguing people shouldn't be voting based on agreement or disagreement.

I will, however, stop responding to you because your comments are not constructive.
