Why do you guys feel the urge to downvote anything that...

Legitimitely seeks to objectively balance champions you hate? More often than not this means assassins (and a handful of other champions). Seriously, if someone puts in the time to explain why something isn't working or should be made better, the reflex response shouldn't be to downvote the guy who says the Shaco nerfs were unjustified or that PBE akali is weak. If you're not even going to read and try to understand someone's stance, please just omit any response, including downvotes or comments.

All I end up seeing are these stupid threads being upvoted at the title, and then legitimite threads that discuss and attempt to improve game balance being downvoted without any clear response as to why they did so.

But they don't comment anything and downvote even the most civilized of posts that involve logical arguments.

Yes literally this. The harder you try the more hate you get.

Honestly my posts with 100+ likes take like 5 seconss to make.

You shouldn't put any stock into it. Its meaningless.

Downvotes and upvotes are methods for signalling your opinion of the content, whether you agree/disagree or are merely judging the quality. Most people use both, and rarely downvote anything (because you can respect a post's quality even if they disagree with you) unless they disagree with it greatly or the post itself is incredibly stupid.

Someone posting a thread, for instance, that says nothing but "OMG Zed is OP plz nerf!111!!!" will likely get a storm of downvotes regardless of the public's opinion on Zed at the time.

Don't put too much thought into it.
