The edit was to cover an additional point I noticed. Why are you reading so much into it? You're being downvoted because you've put an attempt at a political meme into a science sub, expecting a science community to agree with politically charged topics.

Now you're jumping to conclusions about why, because surely most people don't disagree with you!

Just chill out dude. You'll have a much better time here and IRL.

I really wouldn't be surprised if the reason it went from above 5 to below minus 5 was because your edit made me look anti vaxx, even if you didn't do that on purpose (I edit comments a lot too so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt on that)
