I was there, I saw the thread. @TheDude, did you? It was pretty strongly in favour. Do we really need to keep waiting around to see if an instance administrated by a guy who wants to declare “cis” a slur is going to turn out okay?

Feels like he is using some kinda down vote bot. Your comment has an absurd amount of down votes for what you said. Admins need to look into the accounts who down voted you
Yeah it would seem so.
I like to imagine they created each account manually, angrily downvoting me, whilst completely forgetting karma isn’t a thing here.

My impression is that a lot of the new users from the reddit influx explicitly use downvotes as a way to signal their disagreement with an opinion. As a result, several instances have disabled downvotes to shield themselves from this unwanted internet culture. There have also been working proof of concepts of articifial downvote bots, using such tools would be in line with the reddit culture as I’ve experienced it.

That’s how the system technically works, not the rules on my instance.
No there is definitely some fishy shit going on. I would bet there are people spinning up whole instances just to control vote flow. Even if it’s not you someone IS doing it. But it’s probably you

I would be fine having my votes audited. And my post.
