in nature it is the restriction that affords growth. Not growth itself. Growth is like cancer. Restriction is like selection. Upvoting alone also doesnt outline content that is toxic, incorrect and makes it harder to find content that we are interested in. Afterall, you have a title that explains if the content is of our own intrest fairly well.. the upvote is a popularity contest. Downvoteing alone allows our own allows ourselves to decide what We care to endeavor in.

The way this supposed enlightened website grays text that speaks contentously as a way to tell people, "he is being negative we think" seeks to reenforce the popularity contest sort of aggregation.

I wish It didnt happen here. This persons post got to the top but HN wants to still put their own 2 cents into the matter.
