Which posts and comments do you either up- or downvote? Which are you not voting on?
Upvote:
- insightful post or comment I agree with
- clever jokes or references
- being open-minded
- giving helpful advice
- any post or comment that made me laugh or simile, whether or not it is “good”
- good gut feeling about someones intention
No-vote:
- insightful post or comment I disagree with
- overused jokes
- useful bots
- someone angry venting their frustration(s)
- comments that already exist multiple times in a thread
Downvote:
- deliberately looking for a “fight” or rage baiting
- complete disregard to reality
- false and/or potentially dangerous information
- spamming bots and/or trolls
- inciting violence, no matter against whom (people seem to forget this is a straight up crime, sometimes a felony)
- propaganda and political or religious extremism
- know all, better than everyone attitude
- highly questionable anime content (especially sexualizing characters that look like children)
- obvious, malicious manipulation
- AI generated content ( mentioned first by cloudless@piefed.social )
I am really interested in your vote behavior and may also update my list as more things come to mind. These will be listed under a horizontal line.
It all depends on the person:
Posts or comments from women: downvote about every second one, randomly.
Posts or comments from black people: downvote every single one, thoroughly, with extra pressure on the button.
Posts or comments from stupid people: sometimes downvote, sometimes upvote, according to my mood swings. Sometimes create an additional lemmy account in order to have a second downvote.

I see the point you are making, or I am interpreting too much into it, but I don’t think discussion about subjective, highly variable day-to-day things is useless. Sure, every human is influenced by a lot of factors, but in my opinion there is still something to learn from this. I know I did in less than an hour already.I am an idiot.
Just when I tried so hard not to make one…
Ja scheiße, mein Fehler. Ich bin halt fest davon ausgegangen, dass das Satire war, weil es sich genau so gelesen hat.
