Not that it’s a strictly uninteresting topic but it 1) was presented in a way that will cause many people to be defensive and 2) has an unclear association with the topic of these comments. Both of those are common reasons for downvotes on a comment here.
That comment was dead before I could vote on it. I was just describing what I saw in it which seemed likely reasons for it to have been downvoted so much.
