They might also be meaningless internet points. Who knows.

    There are also trolls who constantly say controversial things. Looking at the downvote counter tells you something.

    There are also people who… I don’t really know what’s going in the head of a person who intentionally insult everyone they come across. Did a nefarious little brother hijack that account or is that person really trying get some achievement about maxing out the downvote counter? Some people are a complete mystery. Either way, the downvote counter serves as a red flag.

      Yeah, I don’t get it either. People who take joy in the anger of others are… a different breed.

        Most people play Minecraft to build stuff. Other people just fill a village with TNT.

        I guess those people also treat social media as a game of sorts. Instead of playing it the normal way, they try to find the most unorthodox ways to play it, and that results in a massive torrent of downvotes.
