Recently, many of our anti-Zionists posts have been downvoted to oblivion by liberals. As hexberians realized a while back, downvotes only help liberals since they are more numerous and they don’t need to engage in discourse. I am proposing to just get rid of downvotes and instead engage in discourse on content that we disagree on.

    If we remove downvotes we will no longer be able to downvote libs who wander in here and shit on the floor.

      Downvoting is the cowards way out. We either engage on discourse with them or report them if they are violating the rules.

        If we had more emotes I’d be fine to get rid of downvotes. But not every lib deserves a real response. In the absence of PPB a downvote is our current option.

          Instead of downvoting, could you just ignore their comment? Libs take way more advantage of downvotes to sway the algorithm their way than we do and they use downvotes against us way more than we use downvotes against them. Aren’t we better than them?

            The issue is that ignoring them appears as tacit approval to those not in the know.

        Consider that that’s easily said when one isn’t on the hook for doing the moderation labor.
