Nah, let's do exactly that. I see too many controversial posts which are otherwise good quality and contribute to the discussion, get downvoted because people don't agree with them. I don't care what pg says - downvoting merely for disagreement is fucking stupid, and it's lazy.
If I wanted a hivemind I'd go to proggit. When this community votes on posts based on quality, and not on who wrote it and whether they agree, then we can call people out for complaining about downvotes. Until then (i.e. until never, probably), if you feel you're being unfairly downvoted, bitch about it as loudly as you want - you will get at least one upvote from me when you do.
