Its a shame because they’re prominent voice on lemmy. Good on the admins for not tolerating this. I don’t understand the point of targeting a person you don’t like on the internet just because they said something that upset you and spamming their post with downvotes. If you don’t like someone block their ass and be done with it. I agree with the perspective that its harassment (and an incredibly petty ineffective form of it at that)
Why does this matter? If I disagree and dislike something, why not give me a “don’t like that” button?
You can just say it instead.
I disagree and do not like your comment.
Because they’re awful methods of communication that lead to bad community feel? Seems straight forward to me.
Why do you feel that way? Seems like a fair way to contribute to a discussion without adding an entire comment to barely add anything.
