Someone being mean on the net is not dishonest. Alot of the behaviour you're describing isn't dishonest either. The intention behind trolling isn't dishonest but how someone goes about it can be honest or dishonest. Sure, anonymity brings out some of worst sides of people but it allows for the greatest range of topics to be discussed including the taboo. It's a completely worthwhile double-edged sword to have especially with all the activists out there trying to go after people's jobs or ruin others' lives over shit posts.
So people can like whatever they want on this forum without any kind of repercussion. Why do you want to know who likes something? It's just an anonymous like system. It's not we're talking about allowing people to be shitty to others on here and getting away with it.

So people saying things they do not believe to hurt someone, or performing hurtful actions they would never perform just to hurt someone isn't dishonest? It sounds to me that you need to go back and look up what the word "dishonesty" means.
I personally don't care about the like system in any way, but acting like adding an extra layer of anonymity to an already totally anonymous message board is completely necessary to ensure more honesty is just patently ridiculous.

Maybe you need to read what I actually wrote before you suggest that I should look up dishonesty.
Well, what we post is held against us regardless if it's benign, geniune, satire or bad. You critique something and somebody takes it personally. It would be no different with likes. Some people would want ya to explain every little like on each controversial post. Some would treat ya differently or hold it against ya. I'm all for anonymity with likes.
