I'm fairly certain that (some, not all) of these types of posts are deliberately made to re-enforce ideas within a person. For example:

"Upvote if you're voting for Trump!"

This strengthens that wiring in your brain and re-enforces the idea that you're going to do a certain thing, or think a certain way. After all, you've loosely committed to it.

Interesting way to look at it. I remember this since reddit T_D. Seems like it’s happening more here though.

LOL, it's hard to kick the habit but you gotta start somewhere. I withhold an upvote. Don't go all cold-turkey on me.
