Do you ever find that when you ask a question in a certain manner which expressed your opinion overtly, the answers seem to acquiesce to your perspective?

Yes. But it is not all for the same reason.
Some may agree with you.
Others are just sheep, who just follow anything they see.
Others are prostitutes looking for a 10 point payday.
The trick is determining what the spread is.
Your "Questions" history is ripe with provocative questions.
Are we all rats in some experiment?

What bothers me is that when you oppose a question, you get thumbs down. People are like cattle. I think I've said that before. But keep in mind -most people don't want to hear opinions that oppose their own. They are looking for permission and acceptance. It is the answerers perogative to oblige or if not, to be seen as a troll.

Yes that is happening to me sometimes.....and when I ask the question I know what they will answer me......I think most people do it because they want to make the others like them and because they are afraid that if they express their opinion people may not like it .That's my point of view:)

All the time.
Sometimes when I say something people must think I'm feeling low so they give me a compliment instead of an answer.
