The type of donkbets OP is talking about, though, are common from weak players who have a medium strength hand and don't know how to handle themselves OOP against a raiser. They don't want to check/call, but they don't want to check/raise and inflate a pot either. They're happy to either take the pot right down there, or charge ou for a turn and hope they can see a cheapish showdown. So raising isn't a bad strategy, but because they're weak players they'll often get stuck to their top pair quite a bit as well. .. Particularly after you show down K high a few times. Some sort of subtlety is required on your end when handling those spots.
