This isn't a forum like those that you're used to though, and "the mod didn't like it" is not a valid reason for deleting someone's reply and it doesn't contribute to civilized discussion and it isn't a civilized thing to do in the first place for someone in position of power. Maybe it's ok if you're a mod in your small group chat, for example, it's your room, your safe space, but it isn't ok in a place designed for everyone

and it doesn't contribute to civilized discussion

That's why the comment was deleted, Jack. You can make your own shitposting community if you truly believe it to be an injustice, otherwise I think most people would be glad that a technology community would be for discussing technology, and not looking like a YouTube comment section.

It was deleted because of subjective feelings of a mod and it doesn't matter if you support it or not. I have already pointed out the reasons why that's not ok. Bye.
