Huh. I guess even Fascists can get a thing right once in a while.
A broken (analog) clock is right twice a day but wrong most of the time…

Downvotes should be public like on Kbin, that would help with this kind of behaviour

Anonymity comes from your pseudonym. Your behaviours in public are public.

Dude what? That’s a law regarding the Bundestag. lmao

Die Abgeordneten des Deutschen Bundestages werden in allgemeiner, unmittelbarer, freier, gleicher und geheimer Wahl gewählt. Sie sind Vertreter des ganzen Volkes, an Aufträge und Weisungen nicht gebunden und nur ihrem Gewissen unterworfen.
With anonymity comes brigading. Different instances might handle this differently

For real civil identities, definitely.
For alts I can create in a whim, not so much.
And before you tell that spammers would create alts too, you can imagine some age or karma (because it exist, even if hidden) before being able to downvote.

Or just disable down votes
That could also work
This is the best summary I could come up with:
ROME, Aug 8 (Reuters) - Italy dealt a surprise blow to its banks and sent shockwaves across the sector in Europe by setting a one-off 40% tax on profits reaped from higher interest rates, after reprimanding lenders for failing to reward deposits.
Sharply higher official interest rates have yielded record profits for banks, as the cost of loans soared while lenders held off paying more on deposits.
Since then, however, bumper first-half results from banks brought the issue back into focus and prompted the government to act on the eve of the summer political shutdown.
“One has only to look at banks’ first-half profits … to realise that we are not talking about a few millions, but … of billions,” Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini told a news conference in Rome late on Monday.
All main Italian lenders reported much stronger than expected results for the first six months and upgraded their profit outlook thanks to higher rates.
Since rates rose, they have cut current account costs but have refused to reward cash held there saying that money is for day-by-day use and not an investment.
