I'm keeping those. Even the ones I'm not proud of. But there are one or two that I actually am proud of. For those I'm like Rick.

If there's a misunderstanding I'll delete or if i said something that turns out to be untrue or inaccurate. Otherwise bring it on

Good or bad, I will die with my comments, unless I feel I said something hurtful to someone. My comments are all I have here.

None of the points matter, who cares about deleting a post
ifteguy2
Welcome to Imgur, where the rules are made up and the points don't matter!
Filanwizard
How about those who delete the whole account too.
Slamtastik
Depends on why it was downvoted

From time to time I just want some downvotes, so I comment "dogs are overrated" under bland untagged dog posts. Works 100%

I've never said it, but I hate posts with deformed animals. Go away Felix.
randomrebelsoldier
Indeed. All the effort keeping him alive in constant suffering could've been used to save healthy animals from overfilled kill shelters.
UncleRat
My most downvotes came from suggesting people make homemade burritos. It was a suggestion after someone complained about one they bought.
HorriblyPositive
Mine came from telling vets it's wrong to euthanize treatable dogs if an owner can't pay.
NotTinyPancakes
Why would you get - for that :o
NotTinyPancakes
I mean it's like being a human vet doctor don't they swear some kind of oath to save lives when possible
HorriblyPositive
They do not, and they get real mad if you point it out.

Imgurians are, more so than even Reddit, a very likeminded insular community. It's easy for even moderate opinions to attract ire.
ipop40
This keeps getting posted, but the following line is “Every breath I take without your permission raises my self esteem” And that’s gold.
HorriblyPositive
Damn. That is gold.
eiger3970
It seems what is popular is more important than uncomfortable truths. Being down voted is not always a sign of being wrong.
AHundredBillionBottles
I'm in this post and I think it's hilarious.

Just because motherfuckers are dumb doesn’t make them right.

I remove the ones where I'm factually wrong AND misleading others.
FartPoweredPogoStick
I leave my mistakes visible even when corrected.
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
Saaaame.
TarrkertheNewt
Yep. Same here. Sometimes I 100% feel like I'm the only person who changes their mind based on facts. I'm glad to be wrong about that. :)
Amythyst
I remove the ones where I made a typo and I'm immediately correcting it
RichardPicture
I say nothing of consequence
satomz
Yeah, one of my posts got screwed over by autocorrect and ironically was no longer correct in the context.
Thesaya
My autism has me not get tone across accurately, and also I sometimes fixate on something when I should leave it. I feel like I have a lot
NotTinyPancakes
This, I anger people often because I have trouble explaining eloquently what i'm meaning and it's frustrating for everyone
Thesaya
of bad comments because of that, but I'd never remove them. If I fucked up I fucked up. Especially if I still stand for what I said.
SocoFox
The OP deleted his post that I got -1200 on. I had more pride in that than my high point comments.
HorriblyPositive
That's marvelous.
AimlessSavant
You have to have a remarkably bad opinion to get that low
SocoFox
I don't remember exactly what it was. It was something related to the OP and it got dog-piled. The OP got negged so hard he deleted the post
apathyisakiller
I thought this exact thing when I dared to price a part too high on a car group. Tho I did think about deleting it because fuck them. 1/
apathyisakiller
I hate how people just jump on bandwagons and those posts become some mosh pit for the fuckwads.
thevortexmaster
The weirdest is when you have a one on one conversation with someone and they downvote every comment. I'll never get that
r0twhylr
Those people are fucking awful. I don't have the time for that.
thevortexmaster
Just seems so petty. I'll never downvote on a one on one but I will upvote
r0twhylr
Generally I upvote replies to my posts just on principle. I don't always agree, but I'm ok having a convo over something.
NotTinyPancakes
Oh yeeha i've made more than few people angry enough they go and downvote all my comments I've only done that>
NotTinyPancakes
a couple of times and only on there other posts I really don't agree with, i'm aware of how petty that is.
thevortexmaster
I can be petty fir sure. Hahaha just in different ways
Raoul9753
I mean, its easy to get mass downvoted here, you jsut need to not 100% agree with the going agenda.
delecti
It's just an Overton window. There's not just a single going agenda, but rather a range of things that won't get you downvoted.
jaredrietdyk
I support the current thing!
ifteguy2
Surprised this didn't get downvoted.
ShamaOA
Heh, thought this sounded sus, dude's a covid conspiraloon.
stoutde
Or be wrong about something no matter how inconsequential. Yep.
YouAreTheInsultMaster
I disagree!
Gleipner
You're legit funny and catching downvotes haha, well have my upvote at least
memeseeks
Or insult Texas.
SoundFuture
Or say something positive about it, the crowds tend to gravitate to specific posts or comment trees.
Thornaxe
Or say a very uncomfortable truth.
FlavorFinger
I disagree with 7% of what you are saying, -1 for you sir.
chillstepx
/reaches for downvote, changes mind because it would be proving you right
Raoul9753
dont worry, it will be on 30 or 40 downvotes in no time.
Nightbringar755
You just sound like you're trying to make yourself the victim. Stop
AreYouABadPerson
That's because this sort of idiot desperately wants to be a victim and twists themselves in knots to try and justify claiming to be one.
legitGiraffeBandit
We should go back to the good old days, where you had to own land to have rights, and meat cost 2 cents. Take back america from immigrants!

Just mention 'vegan'

Wait all imgur has one agenda!?

Depends on the post, but it’s pretty easy to tell which way the masses will go for a given topic
rlopez2431415
Dislike apple, Amazon, trump, machine gun kelly, Starbucks (apparently), Elon Musk, those 2 women republicans, etc
CarnivorousRabbit
I mean tbf, those have earned quite a bit of ire

Don't forget selfies, cryptocurrency, nfts, us healthcare, and ndelray

Ever seen what they do to someone who likes Apple?

It's one of the least diverse collection of opinions I've seen.

smilingsumo
It's a leftist echo chamber. Even as a centrist liberal you get down voted to hell for saying anything not in support of socialism.
KaptainObveeus
Ya but a lot of twat wanks on here just horny for the downvote. I bet they are too dumb to downvote me for saying it!
nevergoingtogiveyouupnevergoingtoletyoudown
Upvote downvote agenda. Why do you think sites like Imgur and youtube hid downvotes? They werent lying.
Chromeshack
Sounds like something a liberal would say. Long live Lord Trump
Somerandomoldguy
Its god emporer to you, swine.
khora
The leader of the liberal movement.
ChaoticGoodTransGirl
As a radical leftist, I'm amazed at what no longer gets downvoted. Anti capitalist, anti imperialist, and even anticop stuff gets upvotes
ChaoticGoodTransGirl
now, which is nice but also surreal when some of my most downvoted comments on my old account were shitting on cops & landlords
LucidPariah
Point out anything floyd did, home invasion, assault/robbery with a weapon! Imgur will absolutely shit on you like he was a fucking hero!
license2kilt
I’ve never heard him call a hero. Is the “executed without due process “part the people seem to find objectionable.
blarkk
Sure would have been nice to hear about the charges against him in a court of law. Thank heavens those brave policemen saved us the trouble.
TakeMeToFrontPageAndBackFiveTimesADay
Doesn’t matter if he was hitler, he should have had a trial before being executed. What he did before is irrelevant
LucidPariah
Hitler didn't get a trial. Osama bin laden didn't get a trial. Guy was the bottom of society fucking garbage! No loss of life there
KingKelloggTheWaffleHaggler
Didn't he put a gun too a pregnant woman's stomach?
InternetAnonymityplz
I believe the downvotes are generally because being a bad person doesn't mean the police are allowed to murder you. So it's irrelevant.
DoctorCoktopus
They Assume that's what they're saying, you're allowed to segue into other avenues of a topic as long as it's not a Downvote Taboo topic
DoctorCoktopus
Ironically though even if the start of the conversation wasn't direct Holy Topic territory, it will be segued into like clockwork. Lose-Lose
LucidPariah
Yup! But don't say that here or else you are a boot licker and a fucking racist
KingKelloggTheWaffleHaggler
Lol you got downvotes for that. Even though you're right
LucidPariah
BimbaTheHappyArgentineSheep
Downvotes take on a life of their own - once you're in negative territory, more downvotes become a Pavlovian response.
KaptainObveeus
It's true I saw some hit -15 earlier just fir asking a question. We cane to his defense tho and it went back to positive.
KingKelloggTheWaffleHaggler
It's absurd how dumb people are
only90skidswillgetthis
Well exactly, people scroll down to the bad comment section to be argumentative.
only90skidswillgetthis
And people other than that probably aren't even looking at more than a couple comments which diminishes as you go down.
thoushaltnotpass
There's been experiments, the same comments evolve positively or negatively depending on whether they start with +10 or -10.

You can post the same comment on different days and one will be downvoted to hell and the other will be top comment.
