Pretty sure I was making a wording related home but I forgot what I wrote
Oh well
Edit oh I remember, it was relating how mods demand “positive” behavior, to the misogynistic phrase “smile more” normally directed at a woman, from a power wielding man trying to elicit a response
It’s funny that I got deleted while literally calling out bad behavior but hey, their house, their rules
Edit edit a user has the up and downvote buttons. If a board doesn’t like that, they should change visibility. I believe beehaw does
Ensuring users can’t only leave negative feedback has nothing to do with sexual harassment. I can see the contrived connection you made after reading the explanation but it was not nearly strong enough to leave that comment without context. Even with context it’s merely an inappropriate connection.
You think humans are counting the numbers on paper? You write code for that. And what I’m saying is that there is no value in votes from those that see fit to predominantly downvote. This isn’t a matter of freedom, the platform isn’t aspiring to be a government.

removal reason:
Rule 2: Specifically, the comment is somewhat sexist/misogynistic with no indication it’s tongue-in-cheek.
See my edit. I wasn’t proclaiming that statement myself I was calling out behavior that was like it
Edit using that statement was an illustrative point, not a personally held position.

It’s creepy as fuck for mods to chase people around demanding a mood. Vote how you see fit
That’s why I made a connection to otherwise creepy behavior
Edit also meh, I had it in quotes, which in casual usage makes clear I’m referencing someone else. We don’t quote any normal sentences

I agree that mods run the show, no question.
I’m just starting my opinion its creepy. I downvote posts on conservative subs because they are shit, and am happy with that functionally
yeah that’s lowkey creepy and you didn’t express what you “meant” well at all. i see why they removed it.
edit: sorry mods for feeding this user. this was shitty of me.
My bad for them not using the critical thinking to get the context. Context takes time in text and they have lots of stuff to do.
Edit it should be clear that a mod saying “upvote more (downvote less)” is the connection to “smile more”
Should a person not be free to go to a conservative board, not break rules, and simply vote as you see fit? Lots of trash on those boards
