Every comment in this post got 1 downvote for literally no reason. Like... it's a post about cats, nothing controversial at all. Do people just go around downvoting every post? Why?

I've seen this in some communities. It's hard for me to believe that someone doesn't know they can just block a community they don't appreciate. So the next logical conclusion to me is that it's petty protest, or a weak attempt at vote manipulation.
