Say anything positive about Star Trek: Discovery, or even worse, say that it was actually good, that I enjoyed it, or—the absolute affront say that it is true canon, that it respected canon, and that it truly enriched the whole Star Trek Universe.
With a lot of these topics, it depends on how the post or comment is worded. I’ve seen plenty of posts/comments where the user spoke about the topics and viewpoints in your list and didn’t get downvoted for it.
I have a very simple rule that I rarely break. If someone’s post is worth replying to, I don’t downvote. It’s only if a response would be pointless that I downvote.
On rare occasions, I even upvote people who disagree with me if they said it well or made some good points or conceded some ground though not the “war” I think that’s worth upvoting.
My client keeps a reputation counter totaling the up and downvotes someone receives from me. It tends to be asshole behavior that draws a downvote from me, so if someone manages to rack up a significantly negative total (I’ve never seen anyone hit even -10) that’s a good sign to just block them.
Other than that, nothing and it’s rare I bother with them.
The hatred for CEOs scares me. Luigi being worshipped for potentially murdering someone truly scares me. “But I also hate this group so I’m fine with it” is really dangerous…it’s not ok for someone anti abortion to kill an abortion provider, and it’s not ok to kill CEOs either.
Thank you in advance for my downvotes they are a compliment ❤️
The CEO is a murderer. He is an accomplice in preventing people from getting the healthcare they need by jacking up prices and denying claims.
The shooter (which is not necessarily Luigi) directly helped the working class by making it clear being such a shit person as Brian Thompson is dangerous. And this is sadly one of the rare effective methods of taking down this corrupt system.
Someone that sees an abortion doctor as a murderer could feel justified shooting them. You said the CEO is a murderer, and the shooter directly helped the working class and that’s one of the rare effective methods of taking down this corrupt system. It’s justifications.
These are extreme times, people are going to hold extreme views. Most people are going to have a problem with those who are anti-extremist to the point that they imply moral equivalence between the extreme left and the extreme right. Yes, violence is generally bad. No, not all violence is equally unjustified.
As someone who would sacrifice her authority to maintain a bit of level-headedness, I was one of your “upvoters”. But as someone who blocked/ghosts me, you probably won’t see it. So take that as you will.
That you?:

Half of those will get you banned too. And sometimes the logs will be too embarrassed to admit it.

well said you are very far down the radicalization funnel
when will you take up arms for the cause?
Do you agree with abortion doctors being shot dead?
How is abortion relevant here? I’m in full support of women having the right to make decisions about their body.
Someone that sees an abortion doctor as a murderer could feel justified shooting them. You said the CEO is a murderer, and the shooter directly helped the working class and that’s one of the rare effective methods of taking down this corrupt system. It’s justifications.
Do you see the issue with these justifications?

Yep things have got very polarised
