Why do you want to respect other people's feelings and points of view? Are you afraid of having your own feelings hurt, your point of view being changed? If people have opinions that differ from yours, you can find out if they are true only by questioning them, by coming into active contact with them.
Downvoting will do that job!!!
Tried that honestly. How would you describe someone who downvotes content that has been promoted using a bid bot that only accepts steem engine tokens even if it is a 1SBD upvote, but just ignores content from any other bid bot?
Does that sound legit to you if that ever happened to you?
