Well, flagging is the best way to bring attention to something. So, it tends to work the opposite direction.

Upvoted for visibility. No one should be flagged for stating their opinion.

Fomenting divisive hostility and unproven and harmful accusations of "abuse" and of being "bad whales" against easily identified (even if not named) individuals goes beyond stating opinion, but honestly flagging or not flagging this post doesn't really matter other than for the one doing the flagging to express an opinion.

I think you misunderstood @williambanks's post. I believe he meant he was upvoting my comment for visibility. But I beat him to the punch.

The only reason I upvoted with full weight is to discourage others from downvoting my post to invisibility. If someone does a 'sybil' attack with downvotes (stifle your laughing I'm trying to be serious!), shouldn't their explanation be visible?

Yes I did

@smooth I'm just unburying a comment with my upvote, not taking a position or stance on it. That's all I'm saying in that comment.

Yes I misunderstood
