   You see, on Reddit, being slightly negative? Downvoted! Being argumentative? Downvoted!
   
   The dude that was downvoted, if you reply with something that is anything but asslicking, he'll assume you were the one downvoting. So, downvoted!
   
   Then at the end of the argument, him being being possibly assblasted enough that you weren't licking his ass, strangely enough, you see a couple more downvoting instantly appear on that post, suspiciously enough :thinky: I've seen something like that happen a strange amount of time, very quickly too
   
   What a shit system

     @PurpCat @Mr_NutterButter I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of them have alts (it's literally free on reddit) to downvote several times or they send it to their friends to downvote
     
     We caught some dude on facebook liking his own posts with an alt that was obviously his during an argument

     @coolboymew @Mr_NutterButter and then in private DMs they're conspiring to destroy the haters

     @coolboymew groupthink at it's finest and a great example of toxic positivity

     Not unsurprising, most of the sub where you're basically not allowed to be negative just "strangely" have a big culture of massively downvoting anything not positive, not agreeable, not anything but complete asslicking
     
     It's like the obvious silent unpleasantness hiding in the "toxic positivity", the very visible dark side in the sub... Except that I'm pretty sure that Reddit automatically hide less than positive posts by default as a setting in your account, so very nice system you have there 👌
     
     At least anon on 4chan will call me a faggot and maybe explain why, if he isn't baiting

     Oh also, I've seen people use the blocking function as a "I'm losing the argument" button, so you can't contradict their very obvious bullshit that they post right before blocking you. Both times literally happened like that, they literally posted snarky bullshit and then instantly blocked me so I couldn't respond
     
     Amazing
     
     You know you're blocked because it's completely obvious, the messages appears as "unavailable" to you, but you can just open private navigation to see them :shrugz: It also ends up preserving their single default upvote lmao

     @coolboymew @Mr_NutterButter >send it to their friends to downvote
     
     They 100% do this, even if it's "haha laugh at this retard". They even have a Redditor term for it: "brigading".
     
     Of course as with Reddit rules, approved groups can do it freely.
