    It was one commenter and the following comments rebuking them are much more highly upvoted. It’s maybe a bit early to stick a fork in it.

        Except those who dissented publicly, right? Pretty sure Sotomayor was pretty publicly pissed off at the rest of the court.

          I guess people just don’t like to downvote. Which is outside of my experience, but maybe I am more polarizing.

            Some instances disable downvotes. Certainly not all, but some. I’m not 100% sure if that means they dont count down votes in their communities, or if they dont allow their users to downvote anywhere, but I suspect the latter.

            Personally I reserve downvotes for rulebreaking, offensive comments, spam, things of that nature. Differences of opinion I just don’t upvote. Perhaps this is more common on Lemmy than other places.
