You can't be serious. It couldn't be more obvious what the poster was referring to, a drive by put-down comment with no attempt to discuss anything seriously is more highly upvoted than an objection to such a comment.

What is this place for? Dang tells us, curious discussion. The guidelines explicitly state that certain comments are not in the spirit.

But the community seems to have decided otherwise, which is a shame.

Don't read too much into it, downvotes/upvotes are highly random here, saying the same thing twice will have different reactions depending on the time of day and the topic of the submission, seems certain crowds are drawn to certain topics, which isn't that surprising.

I don't mind the downvotes, the points aren't really the reason I'm here anyways, I just want fun and interesting discussions with people and read other's perspectives, the points don't hinder that :)
