It doesn't need to, of course. Moderation, outside of blatant spam perhaps, is rather pointless. If someone wants to exclaim "Next.js is the second coming of Jesus", I want to hear it. There is a reason they are saying it.
To not get stuck in my bias: For those interested in people, why wouldn't you want to hear "so and so group of people are all _____ and they should all be ________, and oh, your mom sucks"? It is a ridiculous statement at face value, admittedly, but it is someone's attempt at communicating. What they are actually trying to say might teach you something important. Wouldn't you want to surface what they are truly trying to get at?
I certainly would for its tech-based counterpart. Especially if it seems to contradict what I hold dear.

Naturally! I'm out of here the second it is in any way not positive. No sense wasting your free time on something you don't enjoy.
