    Whether is thumb up or down does not endorse the truthfullness of a statement. Rather, is the gauge of popular opinion. For instance, it is possible to receive many thumb downs on statements even though they are true.

    I sometimes know that I will get a thumb down, but I will write it nonetheless, if it is important for people to know. Otherwise, keep the mouth shut.

    There are many answers I give that I know will not be popular and I will get thumbs down. I wouldn't say I'm happy or pleased, but that at times it's expected.

    I guess it doesn't really matter one way or another because for every thumbs down there is twice as many thumbs up and everyone has their own opinion.
