It's a bit of a pet peeve of mine to see downvoting, especially strong downvoting, with no comment. So I'll take a guess as to what people might be thinking and they can come add their two cents if they're brave enough to speak up.

I see two things I think the community is likely to object to. First, LW tends to be actively aversive to discussion of political topics. See this search [? · GW] to start getting a feel for that. It's not impossible to talk about such things here, but it is very likely to draw a negative karma score.

Second, you've posted a naked claim with no evidence, no chain of logic, and no specific examples. You might have meant this post as an invitation for discussion, but I've noticed the LW community tends to respond better if you lay out both the logic and the evidence behind your claim up front. What you've written, many people will perceive as an incomplete argument that asks them to do the heavy lifting. This will get backs up. People will call it provocative, aggressive, or lazy; and they'll downvote it hard (annoyingly without comment). Better to assume going in that somebody already asked you, "What do you know, and how do you think you know it?" and give as complete an answer as you can in the top-level post.
