We can fix that by having moderators that can establish clear guidelines and show enough authority and can be trusted by the community. And yes, if the guidelines include something like:
Downvotes are not for disagreement. It’s fine to downvote if the argument is false or deliberately misleading, but if someone is making a good faith argument that you disagree with, either make a constructive response or simply let it go

If you did it would not be rent free, or would it, einstein. But no worry, i don’t think about you, just this topic and your enthusiasm for it triggered my reply :)
Have a downvote for going off topic and “personal”.

Or some self entitled 3rd party admin would do that just because they’d feel like people owed them explanations.

You are the one pontificating in my comment, and I am the one going personal. Seems like you reasoning is as good as your reading comprehension.
But hey, thanks for stopping by!
