The mod banning these users is the same mod who made the posts they downvoted. This is mod abuse, turning the downvote button into an auto-self-ban button.
The message is "If you disagree with me, you will be banned"
Monitoring and banning users for using lemmy as intended to signal boost your opinion should be grounds to have all mod privileges removed. This behaviour undermines the integrity of the server and the wider fediverse.
If you don't like a community's content, ignore/block it. Why are you downvoting a bunch of stuff?
because downvoting is one of the central actions pivotal to the kind of social media that Lemmy/piefed/reddit is.
Votes are (or were) only meant to work as a signal of what the community thinks to be relevant. This is especially important for niche communities. You are being borderline authoritarian when you are not part of a community and you still think that the whole site needs to have a say in their discussion.
Authoritarian? you need your head checked.
If you feel compelled to try to silence people and try to justify yourself based on your value system, yes, you are being authoritarian.
Also, it's curious that you only managed to resort to a strawman as a response for me calling you out on your behavior. Surely you can do better than that...
Sounds like someone is salty their little fiefdom of communities fucking suck and get no traction. skill issue lol
Cool, I will take this repeated strawman as as a sign that you simply can not address the discussion at hand, and that each of your responses is making the case for anonymous voting harder to support.
You watch too many debatebro streamers lol. Go away.
