- xnull2guest 10y agosctb, for the record I feel that this removed a lot of the on-topic content I worked hard to write. I feel as though my comments, as removed, were not uniquely off-topic, and am surprised that the parent topic is still included in the public thread. I find this to be very unfortunate and aggravating. I had been posting about the use of moderation to censor certain ideas. I find the removal of this comment in this context ironic. Thank you for your moderation. Do I have paths forward to have the subthread reattached?
- sctb 10y agoPerhaps we could've detached the original parent comment, but this one was flagged by users for being overtly political, which they were asked to do this week: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13108404 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13108404. We don't always snip threads in just the right place, but when the community sends us a strong signal we often go with that.
