You couldn't have been about to say something substantial and constructive if the mere worry of being downvoted once is enough to silence your voice.

> constructive

One cannot "construct" anything from a foundation that is so thoroughly wrong that it crumbles at the slightest touch.

Is it then so wrong to give that foundation a hardy poke, rather than making a vain attempt to "construct" something atop it?

Upvoted :) What about don't giving a fuck about scores!?

Ability-to-flag says otherwise. (I have recently been informed here that the downvoting feature is worthless even to those who can use it.)
