I take massive downvotes as a sign of my being right.

I got massively downvoted on reddit in 2014 by putinbots, for example. I also regularly get downvoted here when I'm right.

That is both arrogant and 95% of the time wrong. Accordingly, I have upvoted you. Take it how you will.

IMO hes technically right. If you're wrong, people correct you. If you're right but they know they can't really argue the matter, they downvote.

People downvote wrong posts plenty on top of corrections, or if they just don't want to bother.

I am currently at -2 :)
