Do not respond unless you want to. Who do you think you are to give me "the correct response" and to refer to me "continu[ing] my behavior"? I opined that using a vote bot, if everyone did it, would convert "proof of brain" curating into an oppressive popularity contest that would begin as cliques and would end as an intolerant mob imposing political correctness on the platform and driving away everyone not willing to participate in the mob thinking.

You have yet to respond to that criticism. Failure to respond INTELLIGENTLY with reasonable and relevant points establishes the presumption that (1) you know full well that my points have merit, and (2) you know full well that what you advocate is selfish gaming of the system that is indefensible.
