I don’t really downvote something unless it actively pissed me off
I think most people on this sub agree with you, I think they just have a different threshold with that. I also think the other thing you’ll see downvoted is kind of spammy stuff, where it’ll be like a retread of the same bad arguments, a repost of something, an obvious bait, or shit like that.
So in other words, kind of a combination of the two, although more so because this is an ornery bunch, even by Reddit standards.
