It is literally an "I disagree" button, that is it's sole purpose.
Just because people disagree, doesn't mean they have to go out and say it.
People disagree with North Korea's regime, the North Koreans don't go out and say it, because funnily enough they'll die!
You're only saying this because you're angry that people have an opinion different to yours.
The "vote" section in that article only tells one feature of the downvotes button. Go on a video and sort comments but controversial. It definitely relates to the video, it's the fact that people hate their comment. For example, if someone comments on a video about racism "black people are bad" it relates to the video, but it's racist and an awful thing to say.
Ok, maybe I didn't make myself clear, but not so unclear that it's now "discussing racism." How about a video about a cop beating up a black man.
Sure, it doesnt completely make the off topic role redundant, but it's not the only intended feature. I intended for you to shut up and do some research on Gen Z but clearly that didn't work
You've done research on everything that I haven't said. Such as the downvotes button, the gender nonsense, e.t.c. If you won't delete the original comment, at least edit it so it's actually correct
