Replying here cos I can&#x27;t reply to your other comment.<p>Either I have been so bad at communicating my point that it came out as garbled nonsense or you&#x27;ve confused me with someone else.<p>I am all <i>for</i> people being able to downvote whoever they want without needing to explain themselves. The only reason I mentioned being downvoted at all - by 1 guy, I think - was to point out that the same people complaining that they are being &quot;unfairly downvoted for having controversial opinions&quot; have no qualms about downvoting people with opposing views. Which, in my eyes, is hypocritical.
