you won’t get a request for clarification or evidence, just negative agreement, and that leads to negative karma.

Are you sure this is true? This post says:

Agree/disagree voting does not translate into a user’s or post’s karma — its sole function is to communicate agreement/disagreement. It has no other direct effects on the site or content visibility (i.e. no effect on sorting algorithms).

Mods, has this been changed?

  I meant: negative agreement on (fact-based) posts leads (via behavior of other voters) to negative karma.

  I assumed Bhauth meant ‘people see it has disagree score and then downvote it’. (Agree score does not directly translate into karma and doesn’t count in the auto rate limit)
