I sometimes post news articles that examine possible problems in society. Some may agree with the author, some may disagree. I often see these posts being downvoted if many disagree with the author.

Why do you downvote the post instead of commenting to express your disagreement?

As far as I understand, the idea is to upvote the post to spur conversation and comment to express your agreement or disagreement. Or did I misunderstand something?

    Also, shouldn’t they be addressing the fediverse instead of just Lemmy? I’m still not 100% on how all this works

      Technically yes, since it seems you and I are both on Kbin and also reading this post, but nostupidquestions is a Lemmy community, so I guess I don’t really mind.
