Misinformation should be handled by moderation.
Toxicity should be ignored because recognizing it gives it power.
Off topic comments can easily be collapsed (or maybe there should be a method to mark them as off-topic by moderators) and off topic posts should be removed.

If you think something doesn’t belong just ignore it. It does no harm by existing. If the downvote does anything people will use it for disagreeing.
I think disagreeing should be should be voiced in a reply instead so it becomes clear why you disagree.

We don’t live in your world of shoulds and unto the human race can grow up and not be awful to each other you can’t just rely on mods.
Finally, mods do this work for free, and if they want no downvotes, the instances exist.
