Same, if I disagree with someone I’ll respond, but they shouldn’t be downvoted for not sharing my opinion. But they are spewing some provably false bullshit I’ll downvote, especially if they double down on it. If they respond or edit and are like “ok, I was wrong,” I’ll remove that same downvote.
This is the way. Downvotes are for pseudoscience and bigotry, not harmless differing opinions.
