Terrible analogy. You can consume the post without anyone knowing. Voting is more akin to signing the guestbook.
Meh, that's rather just "I was here" or "I read this". Voting is more like "I liked/disliked this book".
You can also keep that opinion to yourself when reading a book from a library. Voting in this case is like signing that you like/dislike it in the back cover
It wasn’t an analogy- just an equally great idea.
So you would say they're comparable then? Maybe even analogous?
