Didn't downvote, but I think the writing has a flippant voice. In combination with an unpopular opinion I've been able to attract downvotes in the same way
Interesting. I didn't read it as flippant, myself. I actually thought it was voiced similarly to mine (which I don't think is flippant either) and to the point. Oh well. Mysteries of HN.
What's downvote-worthy about this comment?
It's in response to mine, and even though I don't really agree with it, I don't see what's so objectionable that it needs some sort of admonition?
