Saw this a lot on Reddit. Its not specific to here, just trying to gauge how people think. I’d see people posting about how “X said this! Have you seen what else they said in their site history?” And a stream of votebombing would happen.

I also wonder if this behaviour went the other way. Bias was confirmed, so profiles get a little boost? There are sites that hide posts and comments after a certain number of downvotes, but these always seemed to get the engagement even after.

    No, but if its an argument I might look at some other comments to see if their being purposely obtuse, if they are having this argument with anyone else, or if they are just filled with bad takes. I won’t upvote or downvote those though.
