Yeah, there's something subtle, but substantial in the difference between (-15) "everybody hated this" versus (1) "nobody liked this". Doesn't default conversations in an antagonistic, bully-brigaded manner.
The funniest thing is that there's still an impulse to downvote shit, but the arrow flashes, and then nothing. The impotence of my disagreement with this anonymous online comment confronts me head on - the way I see it there's only 4 courses of action in this conjunctural event: 1) angry reply 2) hour long typing out of an effortpost before deleting it due to the obviously hysteric nature which had structured the whole pedantic, passive aggressive nature of the comment 3) post ppb and/or copypasta 4) if no ppb, there is only to reconcile oneself with one's impotence.
This is why I think the vestigial downvote thing is pretty rad
I do like the disabling of the down votes. I feel I can speak against the grain a bit more than I used to.
