Is it rude to interrogate downvoters? (piefed.blahaj.zone)

I'm very curious about the reasoning different people use when deciding to downvote a post or comment. Often, when something gets "heavily" downvoted, the OP will ask some variation of "why the downvotes?". This is sometimes answered with sincere criticism, but sometimes is received even more poorly than the original offending post.

Do you downvote people who ask "why the downvotes?"? What informs the decision?

i agree the mistreatment of literally is pretty annoying but i think that ship has sailed. have noticed that objectively is getting similar treatment now. but there's nothing wrong with emails, and it's not really possible to give a fuck about comma splicing
