I noticed this for quite some time now: Regular discussions or simple questions just like in the last post about the difference of anarchism over libertarianism get downvoted hard but nobody gives a damn about providing some info or just explaining their point of view. I understand that people may use downvotes to show their disagreement but why don’t they specify their opinion with just one simple sentence?
Back when I was on reddit I wondered if it was people browsing all and not actually going into the post. Just seeing the title and blurb and disagreeing with it.
Idk maybe people thought it was too basic or trying to attack libertarianism
Lemmy seems incredibly left wing overall. That could be a big part of it. I get downvoted quite a lot if I imply that being against the currently in vogue left-wing policy does not make one a fascist. 🙄
