One of the things I love about Hubski's "voting" system is that your vote history is literally shown. That means you can't anonymously share things, which will discourage discussions like you see on Reddit such as Fat People Hate. No one with a good head and a good heart would participate in such discussions. Those who at least want to appear to have a good head and a good heart will be hesitant to share something that will put them in a poor light. It's this second effect that will further help to facilitate healthy, thoughtful conversations.
