I am asking you to explain it, is what I'm saying. I haven't downvoted, just that the joke whooshed for me, isn't funny or makes no sense. I suspected it was probably the first so I asked you to explain it.

Sorry then, I thought you were part of that downvote group that didn't get the joke. I should have included a /s tho

Where I come from, when there is this kind of irrational "hate"/ antipathy towards a person/culture/group that it's firmly rooted, we claim it's due to subconscious envy. Kind of like when a comment hurts even tho it's true but you don't want to accept it.
