      Not really, it’s removing the comments that isn’t violating is the real problem. There are definitely comments that should be downvoted for many reasons

      I’ve been places without upvotes and downvotes and they’re just garbage piles of spam and useless replies.

      The Steam Comminity Forms for instance: if you’re trying to get any useful information on a recent release go somewhere else, as half of what you’ll find is people complaining that the game is *woke" (because there is a woman or a minority in it somewhere), and the other half is people complaining that the game isn’t a completely different genre.

      With downvotes the useless, troll, and off topic comments can be filtered out to not clutter up the useful posts.
