Why’s it at +157/-3 after 3hr:
The US stat is so bad you easily believe it when attributed to stereotypical evil regime.
Then you’re reminded that same evil thing is actually something the US is currently doing.
I’m glad we don’t just kill everyone we arrest, I’m glad we’re not ruled by a dictator… still, I wish the average person viewing a meme weren’t able to easily believe something we do was actually done by someone we vaguely recall learning was the worst.
Because blahaj.zone doesn’t count the downvotes. The -3 downvotes that you see are only those that are counted by the instance you’re viewing from (given out by the users of that instance only). Right now, on lemmy.world it has 28 downvotes, on dbzer0 it has 2.
And -12 here now… interesting!
Is Blahaj unique in that respect? Thus our instances likely sum all downvotes when posts are made to them?
Thanks :)
Hexbear also does the same.
