I don't care if people downvote me, the only reason to read the comments anyway to is to get other peoples insight into the matters of whatever the threads subject is. Doesn't it defeat the purpose of being here if you are afraid to speak your mind? I have plenty of unpopular opinions, but until someone can persuade me with facts and reasoning and not an arbitrary Internet number that I'm wrong I'll keep espousing them and taking those downvotes with pride!


Each community have its own customs. It wouldn't make any positive effect if I come over to forum about Catholicism and start talking about big bang.. Similar here, i wanted to deliver my point and chose example which should be received well, instead of trying to confront with people here.


Complaining about downvoting is the archetype of off-topicness in HN comments. Please don't.
