Can the terms used for the Thumb Up and Thumb Down be changed from like and dislike, to Agree and Disagree? I don't think we need to change them.

Can the terms used for the Thumb Up and Thumb Down be changed from like and dislike, to Agree and Disagree? I, for one, prefer the current words. I have liked posts which I disagree with, because I regard them as good posts.
Personally, I've wondered if a post is liked or disliked for its content or the poster. I've seen perfectly positive posts disliked by a certain member for no apparent reason (except to me). Some members here seem to like everything regardless of the content or like both sides of a disagreement (rather, a feud) which is really confusing. Maybe some thought could be given to an alternative. I try to avoid the dislike, except when I think it will help get an unacceptable post deleted. I generally ignore a post I don't "like", that is, if I'm not uncontrollably compelled to reply. Edit: Never mind, I see the discussion was dismissed before completing this post.

I like this post because I agree. The change that I would support is terminating the use of "dislike". Terminating the use of "dislike" supports the saying "If you've nothing nice or positive to say then say nothing"
In addition, terminating the "dislike" forces a person to post some explanation or rationale for disagreeing by simply saying I "dislike" for no clear reason. It would prompt discussion of other sides of the issue.

"When we discuss about todays mostly trash music"--Eulenspiegel
There are bands that play incredibly strong, beautiful music. Many of them are European, especially the Finnish Symphonic Metal band Nightwish. Their lead singer is 6'1" Dutch Soprano Floor Jansen. Here is their top performance at the 2013 Wacken Germany Open Air Festival;
