Your lack of arguments prompts you to post something completely unrelated to the post. I believe you would call this ad hominem or whatever buzzwords you use.
You don’t even know what you’re talking about, so you’re either stupid or naive. Since I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you’re just naive, I assume you’re just a child (or have the mental capacity of one).
Why would everything posted in this comment section have to do with the post, especially if it’s a response to another comment instead of directly to the post?
When we’re arguing about what should and shouldn’t be allowed on the Fediverse, ad hominem is relevant, because it proves that you already don’t speak for anyone else
On the left side of each post there are up and down arrows, which let you upvote or downvote it. You can upvote posts that you like so that more users will see them. Or downvote posts so that they are less likely to be seen.
which doesn’t really back me up.
My downvote principle was meant more generally - most places that have a downvote policy say that it’s not meant for shouting down people you disagree with, since that’s not conducive for civil and nuanced conversations.
I understand the point (especially if some can’t use downvotes) but I hope the alternative isn’t something like this post, because I don’t think I’ve ever seen a less civil one.
If my broadcaster blocks the news segments they don’t want me to see, it is. That’s what’s happening here. Instance owners are taking it upon themselves to block content from users. Bullying pieces of shit are trying to strong arm instance owners into defederating.
Yay censorship
Yay ban evasion?
Sorry if that’s not you, see you soon if it is.

And much like Barney above, they’ll keep coming back.
I love how people check these kinds of things on here

You should do something constructive with your anger, child.
Says the guy who posted “shut up”… I wonder who’s underage here.

That’s an awful lot of words to say “yes, that’s me”.
Get some help.
Lol

Arguments are used in debate, this isn’t really one.
Honestly, this meme was just a hunch and I’d love to be proven wrong.

Shut up
The irony of this response is palpable.
Careful my guy, you might get censorshipped!
I’ve been vaccinated, I’m okay!
If you’re not going to contribute anything but your rage, you should shut up. This is what the downvote button is for.

No, the downvote is meant to be for things that don’t contribute to the discussion, not for things you disagree with.
Is this documented for Lemmy or just grandfathered from Reddit?
Not all instances even support upvotes. Some only support downvotes. Does every instance have to agree on the meaning?
Good question. The documentation says:

You’ve never heard anything less civil than “shut up”? You live a very sheltered life if that’s the case.
You are as pitiful a troll as ggsu7.
That’s the ideal, but we all know that’s not how the majority of people use it.
Explain the downvotes for my “unrelated” comment which is apparently more unrelated than someone posting just “shut up”.
Upvotes and downvotes are only there to tell people with no wrinkles how they should feel about a post. It creates a preconceived bias.
Shut up.

nobody’s making you be here
If it’s so shitty, then you can leave
Fuck off nazi
That is not censorship, my smooth friend. Nobody is censoring anybody in this context.
If you turn your tv off during a newscast are you censoring the broadcaster?
