DV for being unconstructive.
(He was constructive—see the first sentence. You downvoted him because he was also rude.)
I cannot determine the difference between my heavily downvoted comment and this one:
“http://lesswrong.com/lw/57e/we_are_not_living_in_a_simulation/3wxb″
Mine is more abridged and might be unclear, but that doesn’t seem worth 13 karma points. I am confused.
I did not downvote you, but the following looked to me superficially like an insult:
Maybe the qualia of people who ACTUALLY have brains are completely different from yours, a person who has no brain.
People react badly to personal insults. I am not sure that you really intended an insult, which is one reason I didn’t downvote.
If you replaced “brains” with “bodies” in your comment, it would make the same point and not look like an insult.
