It's sorting by score rather than anything else, in my experience. Makes it largely opinion-forming on the participants.

Once I've seen a website where you couldn't downvote, only upvote. That was actually a great thing, because it promoted posts that at least a significant portion of people agreed with, not just posts that simply everyone agrees with.
So… FB with like and no dislike button?
Youtube does not expose the number of down votes any more. LinkedIn has no dislike button and I find it positively toxic.
