Examples that come to mind are political communities, linus tech tips, diet communities, etc. There will be a group of people who will not make comments, posts, but will strictly downvote everything that is in the community.

This is a continuation of a discussion @Blaze@feddit.org and I started elsewhere, but it deserves it's own space for meta-moderation discussion.

https://lemmy.ca/c/endlesswar has this problem. And me mentioning it will make it probably worse. While Lemmy is ultra progressive, it somehow simultaneously identifies as ultra pro empire, and their fake progressive bots need to keep the narrative.

The US military bots to user ratio is way too damn high on Lemmy, but evil misinformation/manipulation being wrong is not going to stop it.

Down voters are the worst. If I could, I'd force them to maintain a ratio.
