You see, the problem is that you "suspect" that it could be an exit scam and you haven't proven it, but based on that, people who think so are persecuting him. And that's exactly how downvoting works. It's nothing more than lynching and passing judgments that no one checks. Destroying people's accounts that they've built up over the years, or simply persecuting people for their views.

A system of voluntary private donations works better.
