No I’m not. Even other people are asking why you all are downvoting. lol
You’re just making baseless assumptions and accusations about people you know nothing about. Which is good enough reason right there for them to down vote you.

But the article was downvoted before I said that. I gave that explanation after someone commented on all the downvotes.
So any explanation? :)
I actually don’t care about downvotes or upvotes. I won’t stop posting and I won’t leave Lemmy. But someone asked and I gave the reason.
Nothing exists in a vacuum. People can see your history.
So then I was right. People are downvoting based on politics. Which I mentioned.
Now why would someone look up someone’s “history” before reading a non-political science article posted in a non-political science community?! And then downvote based on that history rather than the actual science article?!
Then why did you reply: “Nothing exists in a vacuum. People can see your history”?
What “history” would you be referring too? And what would that have to do with downvotes? You mentioned the history aspect, so maybe you can clarify.
And why would someone click on a poster’s “history” before downvoting a non-political science article in a non-political science community from a recognized and valued source?
People can see your profile and down vote you for reasons other than politics. To assume only politics would mean you purposely choose that display name to start a fight.
You’re giving yourself way too much credit.

Hmmm, maybe you have a theory of why people would downvote an article from www.rutgers.edu
But don’t worry, I won’t stop posting. And I won’t leave Lemmy. So no worries! :)

Dude, people can see your history.

I wonder who would do that?
People can see my history, too. But I don’t assume people down vote me because of my politics.
So the downvotes aren’t about politics?
