posts hidden and negative rep does seem to have some impact on your credibility

isn't that the whole point of downvoting in the first place ?

It depends on the content, doesn't it?

The point of downvoting is the same as the point of upvoting, to curate the content as everyone deems best, what's at the front and what's last. As upvoting can and is abused, so too downvoting is susceptible to be misused.

if you give a group of 100 kids a handful of coins they can share to encourage artwork and writing and performances they like, they will choose different things, and some kids will receive bigger tips than others and that's all fine

there is no need to give the kids baseball bats to knock tip jars into the gutter

That's hardly what the fuck is happening, in your twisted reality, Downvoting is synonymous with violence? Fuck off. You are whack if you think there shouldn't be a mechanism for the prisoners dilemma of tipping only yourself, which is fine, but don't pretend that you have any credibility to make comparisons or to draw parallels as you've been reduced to saying that downvoting is Fascist Violence.

knocking tip jars into the gutter is exactly what downvoting does

No its not. They aren't the equivalent of tips because you can tip on hive as on here and you're left with nothing but equivocation, claiming that upvoting is parting with your own money!
