Nope.

Only users not participating and either blanket downvoting multiple posts or downvoting specifically this ONE moderator’s post banning downvoting without participation were banned.

You are actually the best example here - you have participated and are not banned.

Coming to the community just to downvote is toxic. Since banned users don’t contribute, they have no interest being there.

You don’t like a certain community - block and move on with your life. Don’t behave like a dick.

You don’t understand what the rule means - it is to encourage participation, ie posting and commenting. Blanket downvoting has exactly opposite effect discouraging participation.

Coming to the community, especially a small one, just to downvote without posting a single post/comment is antisocial as fuck so stuck your rage where the sun don’t shine, sweetie.

Your reference to “respectful dissent” shows you don’t understand what the rule means - it is to encourage participation, ie posting and commenting. Blanket downvoting has exactly opposite effect discouraging participation.
