pretty gross whitewash of the rape, torture and enslavement of many thousands of women by colonizers

Given NJM’s comment I can fully understand his downvoting. People can disagree with your comment for more than one reason.

Let’s not weaponize people’s votes, thanks. Probably the single worst “feature” added to Lemmy.

Honestly, I don’t see any real reason anyone should be able to see anyone else’s votes that isn’t nefarious. The only reason people would want to see how others vote is to be able to call a hate mob to harass someone for “voting wrong.”
Regardless, people should be allowed to vote however they want, even if that means its not the way you or I would have voted a comment or post. People vote on posts and comments for a trillion different reasons. Someone might agree with a comment but they feel it is off-topic or de-railing the conversation so they downvote it, and then you get terminally online serial harassers attacking them because “they don’t agree” or some other awful reason.
Ultimately, this ends in posts getting no more down votes, except for maybe spam posts, and then upvotes also being low because nobody wants to get attacked for how they vote on posts. Certainly a great way to ruin engagement in an online platform, IMO.
Like, just remove votes entirely at that point.

I’m pretty sure that the second page is depicting the scene before the rape takes part, both natives look displeased because they were forced to be there. And the left one could be a kid.
Idk what’s being whitewashed in this metaphorical rape illustration tbh.

People are completely media illiterate and see the "main"character of the picture being happy and thus immediately think it’s a celebration of the bad thing
