This is exactly the reason why I refrain from contributing in most cases when I only want to bring up an opinion or another point of view to create more discussion. If I don't preemptively apologize or explain why I'm posting the comment I'll get showered with downvotes and I really don't feel like every comment should be written as an essay.
This is especially true on topics which a lot of people have very strong feelings about, such as freedoms, rights and politics and whatnot. You ask a question or bring up an opposite view in any manner and your comment is instantly downvoted below threshold.

downvotes are how keyboard warrior faggots censor dissenting views. this is what we have to fight against.
