The OG hacker news website doesn't even have a downvote button?

I notice the upvote is just a hyperlink to `voteid=__&how=up&auth=__&goto=reply__`

So do they just curl `vote?id=__&how=down&auth=__&goto=reply__` ??

downvoting comments and flagging posts requires karma.

Not from my tests. I just was able to curl downvote someone even though I don't see the button. Click my latest submission to see it.
