i think making votes public would do more to make this place into reddit than nearly anything else could. everyone would instantly have to fall in line or risk the wasting of their account.
no no no, im not saying that reddit does that. thats not what i mean and you probably know it. im saying that this place would become similarly singleminded and controlled by the whims of certain power users (though in their case the admin is in on it and consciously part of the problem) the way reddit is. wrongthink would be punished and it would doubtlessly not take long for what qualifies as wrongthink to drift leftward. in environments like that, the lies and dogma of protosocialist ideology starts putting out roots. especially as the good goats start to leave.
way to (((misunderstand))) what i was saying; your "argument" is invalid.

I didn't misunderstand. It was a stupid statement and you had to write a paragraph explain your illogic.
you sound like a pussy. Don't fall in line. Don't rely on a system to protect you. Defend your beliefs and don't cuck.
