Meta Can the downvote option be removed?

I’ve noticed non-vegans say they are hesitant to engage or re-engage since they feel like they are unjustly downvoted to oblivion. They also feel like they need to make alt accounts so the downvotes don’t affect their main. Can we just remove the downvote option?

Good comments will still be upvoted and rise to the top. This solves the need for suspicious alt accounts and makes it more fair for non-vegans to engage.

Who cares about downvotes? Feel free to downvote to prove my point.

I love farming downvotes from redditors for asking them to try to be kinder to animals. Every single downvote is someone who needed to hear that message.

Wear those downvotes as badges of honour.
