What is this thing called a passive voice? I only see facts in that post.

I don't see anything 'passive'. But then being forceful or passive is irrelevant to the point.

What is this thing called a 'passive voice'? How would the same sentences be posted to not be in a passive voice? And why does passive or forceful voice make facts difficult or easier to grasp?
