It’s just happened again here, to a different poster, for basically the same thing - observing that a poster can’t separate their emotions from facts.

This terrible moderation needs to stop, especially when it’s being used to shut down a point of view based on facts and support one based on ignorance and falsehood. This board is supposed to be about fighting those things, so if posters aren’t allowed to call others out on these things the mods need to clamp down hard on the lies and emotional misinterpretations of facts.
