And as if by magic, the strong downvote appears! My guess is that the person is just trolling, but I do not actually care. See me put my mouth where my mouth was!
I believe that the reason your comment was strong downvoted was because you implied that “everyone repeating things already said” is an inevitable consequence of asking people why they disagree with you. This might be true on other websites (where people are hesitant to relinquish beliefs and opinions), but not on LessWrong.

Upvoting for the footnote, btw.

Even on LW, there comes a point where everything has been said and further discussion will foreseeably be unuseful.
