I wonder what percentage of us rarely vote up or down on anything, on some platforms I can understand it in theory ie attempting to increase visibility / have something seen by more people by boosting its spot in the algorithm, although even that is pointless on platforms where it's manipulated behind the scenes anyway, but on here I just sort by new and instantly see everything from the past 24 hours, not enough posts or traffic to make competing for visibility a thing
Obviously there could be both kind of "bots" - those who upvote and those who downvote by reading the headline.
IDK, I don't really care about that karma/points stuff myself, but sometimes upvotes those who reply with some interesting point/argument regardless of my agreement with their point. Also I upvote interesting topics to have them in "Upvoted posts" list. Rarely downvote some really ignorant things.
But the headline is the post?
Your social experiment is fraught with error.

if you downvote it as you should it means that you read past the headline!
Thanks. Mods locked the post. The comments to the video was the main point (the real real awakening), not the actual video.
