I'm not sure your example really applies here... the mods here seem to be deleting comments that identify the shooter's name and ties to radical islam. It's worth noting that even the FBI came out and stated possible links. /r/news is literally censoring news... These megathreads used to be the goto source for breaking news. The one on /r/news is a huge joke. Literally every comment is deleted... redditors are resorting to /r/askreddit and /r/the_donald to discuss the shooting! This is a big deal!

Removed - [-]brettsinn 273 points 2 hours ago [removed] I found it really strange this wasn't the first thing I saw on the fp. Had to dig in order to find it. Not Removed - [-]JonBananas 106 points 2 hours ago It's the worst terrorist attack on US soil since 9/11 and there are almost zero threads about it. The mods are deleting things according to ever-changing standards. Reddits move toward censorship has been documented before. This is particularly jarring.

The shooter was an registered democrat[1], Muslim and his father said that his son got "angry" when he saw two men kissing[2]. So it's OK now, just a cultural misunderstanding. Islam is religion of peace.
