Jfc, I'm not the original person who started this thread.

But if you're a child who needs it broken down:

forums such as lemmy allow users to create multiple accounts
each account a person has access to is a potential vote
casual honest users will then likely just have one vote
whereas terminally online jerkoffs like you sound like will have a dozen or more accounts and votes
therefore, it's not a good system for enforcing any kind of egalitarianism.

You might as well ask why we need login accounts at all. If you want to see what happens with such systems, you need only look at 4chan.

Now, fuck off I'm done with this thread
