Topic: Down Votes

Can't both of these accurately be put in the 'people downvote whining' basket? They are like a lite version of the sort of "Why do people draw X?!?! " comment that often receives a 'learn to blacklist, noob' type response.

Yes, but my point is they're usually caused by people who don't like the subject matter somehow ending up on such posts anyway, where there's no likeminded vote-weight to even out the inevitable backlash.
And these are my examples because right before this thread went up the OP dropped a comment complaining about such comments getting downvoted.
