The point I was trying to make was that you can't just say "immediately" and get away with it. And upvotes/downvote don't necessarily have to merely reorder. On many websites, large counts of downvote automatically hide and sometimes delete the post in question.

- lotsoflumens 10y agoSorry about the delay in responding ... I don't consider upvotes/downvotes by themselves to be moderation or censorship. That's just non-verbal communication. However, when an upvote or downvote system hides a post or promotes a post, then it's censorship, because promoting a post necessarily hides some other post.
