Comment on Upvote given to a crosspost goes to both the crossposted post and the orignal post

Why? When I post a link and at the same same formulate some opinion on it in the body of the thread, and you do the same with the same link but in another community and with your own opinion, then that’s still also a crosspost. Why should those two share the upvotes/downvotes?

mutual promotion.

Let’s take some example. You have news about Biden. You post it in some community with probably your pro-Biden opinion along with it. Then you have someone else posting the same link on c/conservative with obviously an anti-Biden opinion attached to it. Why should the two mutually promote themselves?

so that exchange takes place? isn’t that better? this will also help people coming to the website get rid of echo chamber mindset and be rational.
also it does not necessarily has to be only upvotes that get shared, downvotes and reports also could be.

It’s still misleading, it makes it seem as if both opinions are widely upvoted.
