        No, the downvote is meant to be for things that don’t contribute to the discussion, not for things you disagree with.

          Explain the downvotes for my “unrelated” comment which is apparently more unrelated than someone posting just “shut up”.

        Upvotes and downvotes are only there to tell people with no wrinkles how they should feel about a post. It creates a preconceived bias.

        Shut up.

        That is not censorship, my smooth friend. Nobody is censoring anybody in this context.

        If you turn your tv off during a newscast are you censoring the broadcaster?

          If my broadcaster blocks the news segments they don’t want me to see, it is. That’s what’s happening here. Instance owners are taking it upon themselves to block content from users. Bullying pieces of shit are trying to strong arm instance owners into defederating.
