Another (possibly bad, but want to put it out there) solution is to list names of people who downvoted. That of course has downsides, but it would have more accountability, especially when it comes to my suspicion that it’s a few people doing a lot of the downvoting against certain people/ideas.
Another is to have downvotes ‘cost’ karma, e.g. if you have 500 total karma, that allows you to make 50 downvotes.

This would make it harder for people to downvote on topics like this one where it’s really risky to admit disagreeing with people.
