I projected this and so much more on (formerly) Twitter HQ in San Francisco. You can see then are sign that used to show the company name.

I, who has written the comment, had the same feeling. I assure you that, being English not my mother tongue, was genuinely curious, but when I've seen the downvotes, I wanted to ask why, then I realized the I couldn't care less. If people feel attacked by a comment and they want to do a reprimand via downvotes let them do it.

Well, if it helps, some solar punk posts like this one go mainstream. I think there's only about 150 active solarpunk members so when a post gets close to 1000 votes that means non-community members are voting.

I've commented on solarpunk stuff that was mildly in capatlism defense (much more controversial than your question), and had great conversations/critisims with almost no downvotes. So I think/hope the downvotes are not from the core solarpunk community. It is still sad, but I would be much more sad if it happened and the main post only had 100 upvotes.
