I guarantee (stamped, sealed, approved, obviously…) that at least some of the down voters read the title as “Why libs love CK” instead of “why libs love A Charlie Kirk.” Saw it as a personal attack against their own identity, said “No I don’t!” And voted.
Source: I misread it this way myself. But I’m not so quick to act and re-read it.
I did check the vote sources early in the trend, when there was only two upvotes including my own; 9 of 10 downvotes were from LW accounts – so my tirade against LW users isn’t coming from nowhere. It could be that federation is faster with LW than other instances so they interact with the post first, but their biases and misreadings have an anchoring effect for the rest of the people who encounter it.
I think you’re more likely to assume an uncharitable but incorrect reading is accurate if there’s already a score of downvotes next to the title.
