It’s funny and ironic that you have 10 downvotes but only two replies.
Anyhow I think this is it, but at the same time I do agree with others here that a reply to a downvoted comment promotes community, resilience, and hopefully empathy. But there’s no way it’s going to happen all the time. When it does, it’s great, and when it doesn’t, we shouldn’t be offended.
You don’t even know if the downvotes are coming from an actual human, so a few downvotes shouldn’t make a difference. I realize this isn’t the exact case that the OP is describing though.
How insecure are you that you need people explaining why they disagreed with you?

Because humans are hardwired to crave acceptance from their ingroup.
