Rather than look at the rules as logic tests that must be passed for an action to be punished, look at the rules as informing what behavior is allowed and prohibited.

Choosing to dislike every post by a specific user because it is by that user is simply harassment. Choosing to dislike a poster /without providing feedback/ as to why is counter to the principles of good communication.
