"I do understand why balte needs to downvote my zero rewards comments as well - getting my posts muted is the goal"
"Their system needs the people following the rituals of empty word posting to be left alone."
That why you get another downvote, all of your words are in the blockchain, nobody wants to keep you silent. But if your only aim is insulting people, then you have to live with the downvotes. And there is no "their system".
What wrong with you??
"They complain about me insulting people. I agree, I do. I do not call anyone names (asymmetrical situation). I do publicly disclose the ways various accounts (translates to people) are losing their dignity"
Why you are telling lies here, you gave a personal blacklist of account-names in your main-posts.
Who is losing dignity, if he is supported by upvotes??
Again, whats wrong with you??
And "Bastiat"at the end??😂
I dont think, that you understood this great french liberal oeconomist, otherwise you would not do your stupid crusade and your senseless insultings.
I dont think-if i look to yout behaviour, posts and comments, that you have any "liberal roots", just "little policeman-roots".
Best regards.
