I’d still vote all parties on elections, in my country, unused (e.g, blank) paper will be taken by the cheaters.

Sometimes, generic tests are shallow, you’d need another tests

That’s why there are some capitalists hate crony capitalism.

Personally, I think the scoring system itself is fine. It only becomes an issue when the ecosystem turns into an echo chamber where people blindly downvote opposing arguments without providing a reason.

Most clients will hide down voted posts or comments if they reach certain number, CMIIW. I don’t really care about the down vote counts but when people just blindly down vote without any reason, I can assume people that downvoted me here are not really that open to discussions and only want to hear what they wanted to hear and shows a lack of understanding.

It’s acceptable and understandable for me since this is Fediverse where most people are left-leaning and I was a heavy leftist until I deep dived economics and how the left economic system is unrealistic in my personal view.

I posted something on !libertarianism@lemmy.world and got downvoted by many whilst I always upvote my opposition so the discussion doesn’t get buried. Lmao.

Terminator, for the nostalgia.
