Yes I meant online in general. Many places where the mods take sides and delete one side of an argument. Others with automation that can be abused. I also think you ought to take a closer look at the downvoting even in this thread. Yes, it may be obvious that certain people with a penchant for portraying Gamergate as Nazi sympathizers and as an organized hate group earn downvotes, but its certainly not every one. And if you look at the early pages of the thread, you'll see how some of the Social Justice nitwits will downvote every post. I quit posting in this thread for quite awhile and I was still having rep drops from it months later.
I'm pretty sure the only reason you don't see more orange even now is that many people are upvoting the recent posts when they see them, but that doesn't stop the rep loss, just limits it.
