    Why is people downvoting an actual unpopular opinion? I meant, you might have your opinion on the subject but the post itself is on point.

      It’s an inherent flaw in the community concept in its alignment with the up/downvote system. People just droll along, don’t look at comm, instance, or user, just title, and maybe text content, and then they hit up if it made them feel good, and down if it made them feel bad. This one particular comm goes against this pattern that basically every other one follows, so it never gets the correct reactions.
