I’d guess most voting come from people browsing all communities. That’s how I found your post.

I did a quick scan and the more misleading and fear mongering posts are downvoted, the news type posts seem upvoted.

Maybe be specific in asking which posts you’re concerned about getting down votes? Otherwise I’m going with my general answer here.

I downvote posts if they’re idiotic.

Communities about idiotic ideologies tend to attract idiotic posts.

Because conservatism is a dog whistle for cartoon villainry.

Everything isn’t downvoted. Sort this community by upvotes and you’ll see there are a handful that are positive. You can do the same with the people who post here. Go to their history and sort by most positive. All of them have positive comments and posts.

It’s the content that’s being downvoted. Not the community or the users.

They hate you and want you to die.
