I do agree from the emotional standpoint.

Not reacting to whale voting patterns can, and in reality does, lead to them dominating and deciding over what goes on trending, and makes people post in communities which aren't topical and thus pretty much useless for everyone. Which is a big problem, reported by several people I tried to onboard.

But it has to be the wish of the community of course to stop certain behaviours. We have been fighting windmills since quite a while, and didn't really change anything.
