I didn't downvote, but my model of people who did is they don't like you and find you a bit slimy.

Ah, I see. So for those people, it's not about the post, it's about the author. Gotcha.

Judging from the amount of perfectly innocuous comments from you that are downvoted at the moment (including the one that I'm responding to; or rather was downvoted until I upvoted it back to 0), this seems like it's indeed the case.

Some people.

Since I was one of the downvoters, I'd like to clarify that I have no firm opinions about Gleb personally. I find the texts that he posts here to be slimy, sleazy, and scummy snake-oil, and I consider his efforts to be misguided.

If he were post something smart or insightful, I'd upvote accordingly.

Thanks for providing further evidence.
