RE: Downvoting abuse
I agree there are some clarity issues with the post, but the point is important: we're starting to see too much downvoting stuff just because someone disagrees with it or gets offended by it.
Downvoting (as presently implemented) is a form of censorship and thus should be used sparingly. Spam and abuse (objectively and demonstrably false claims, plagiarism, bullying, etc) are legitimate to downvote, but downvoting because you disagree with someone (as in the case of @sneak and @elfspice) is inappropriate (and I am disappointed to see @sneak engaging in this kind of censorship).
