That a mere comment about a personal experience with this dynamic manages to garner a bunch of downvotes is all the more indication that awareness about such dynamics is sorely lacking in large parts of the IT community... which of course only reinforces those exact same dynamics.
It could be the downvotes are because you're off topic, not because of any other links. It's quite hard to assign reasons to downvotes without commentors explaining their vote reasons.
