View submission: Is OP backlash a thing?

Heh, this is pretty much par for the course.

I got super heavy downvotes today by responding to a shitpost as a mod on a local sub.

I didn’t take down the post. I pointed out it was really low effort. It was political but I didn’t join in any of the politics. I still was sitting at about -50 votes for almost all my comments.

I’ve been modding that sub for close to two decades. So it’s kind of hilarious when people ask me to step down because I didn’t agree with their particular shitposting.

Thats unfortunate. I think mods in general get downvoted a lot too, I have seen it.
