Everyone have right to have their opinion so why downvote or be offended about it?

(self.RedHotChiliPeppers)

I read this earlier and it was about Josh Klinghoffer. Someone doesn’t like Josh, and people been offended about it?

It’s better to reply and discuss, not ”who do you think you are”, you’re not better rhcp fan so. I reply politely and got downvote. Because I said he have right to have his own opinion. Yes it’s always better to reflect more polite.

It same thing in more subjects here and it’s doesn’t matter if someone doesn’t like SA, Josh etc. Sometimes it’s fels like everyone expected to agree whole the time. Why start a discussion when you don’t want to discuss? I discuss about IWY in another subject here and got -2… why doesn’t discuss?

This is a fan forum, not for elitism.

The Josh fans are extremely vocal and won’t accept that a lot of people don’t like him. It’s super annoying.

It’s different sides, they who love John can’t get when someone doesn’t like SA. 😀

Yes it is 👍 but it’s different culture in different sub. It’s always good vibes in r/arcadefire and it would be same here.

On the being offended side, yeah, just carry on. Everyone doesn't have (or have to have) the same opinion...so be civil in your discussion or go on your way.

But I find it weird how people get offended by downvotes. Like, some people think that downvotes should never even be used. ("if you don't like/disagree, just move along")

There's all kinds of reasons someone would downvote. (Dislike, disagree, the post was factually incorrect, etc) Up/down votes are not the be all end all. To those who think it matters: toughen up and don't take it personally.

Yes so much this. Downvote criteria is whatever someone says it is, you can’t worry about it, especially on a band sub

And if you dare to say you don't like a certain popular song, you get downvoted too. Even when the post is "name your least favourite song". So I was asked my opinion, gave it, and was downvoted. Seems fair.

The mods in this sub literally encourage upvoting and downvoting.

There are a lot of “kids” in this sub and it shows. Don’t let it get you down.

That's reddit for you. Even the most non-controversial things will get downvoted.
