Lemmy allows people to see who downvoted things, some apps let you tag users so you can recognize them in the wild. For instance, you could look at who downvoted this and then tag them all as "Fucking Scum".
There is a lot of hate, but I was also thinking of this. It does surprise me that the anti-lgbt movement has become so widespread. Like, what did they ever do to be hated that much? Loving the wrong person?
