Friend of mine who's a "free speech crusader" is fond of pointing out that free speech includes "the freedom to be a complete antisocial jackhead."

Regardless, it still bugs me when some people seem to weaponize downvotes. I look at my posts... and I have a few downvotes on many because someone has an axe to grind with someone who upvotes my content. They don't even read my stuff, they would have zero idea as to whether they are "in disagreement with rewards" or anything else.

It reeks of Junior high and "I can't be friends with you because you're friends with Bobby who spoke to Jack who's friends with Bill whom I hate!"

To be perfectly blunt: Grow the f!ck up!
