The thing that I hate about it is that I am on the spectrum, and as such have posted things that have gotten down voted to hell and back but even when I ask why, I never get an answer. The question "why is this happening I don't understand" only feeds the down votes. Now, idgaf about internet points, I'd just like to know what's wrong about what I said.
And for the record I'm normal ASD, not the 4chan Hitler shit, so it's not because I said anything racist lol
Hell, a lot of the time you'd get downvoted purely as some form of competition. An attempt to increase the chance of their post/comment getting upvoted. Then there's the rest who downvote it purely because it was already downvoted by others.
