It's kind of ironic seeing people post something here and being downvoted. Kinda just proves their point.
Not necessarily. They could be down voted because what they mentioned is hated for a good reason. Like if someone posts "Nazis" or "cancer".
So if someone said that people hated nazis and holocaust denial "for no reason" and was downvoted into the dirt you'd say that proved their point? Sometimes people are downvoted FOR A REASON. That does not validate their point in a thread like this.
