I don't agree with their decision, and I hope some transparency is forthcoming about what led to them taking such an extreme position. OTOH, I'm also not going to tell them how to run their instance.
Your post in the politics community did merit removal as it violated the rules. I don't think that community allows "meta" posts unless it's from a mod (I could be wrong).
Their admins are usually pretty transparent, so, again, hopefully more information will be presented.
In the mean time, just look for off-instance crossposts ;)
Transparency should be preceding or in parallel, not an afterthought. This is not acceptable.
This is the same as their moderation style. They ban first and justify it later.
Are you owed transparency regarding something you use but do not have any responsibility for? That sounds incredibly entitled to me.
It's about trust, bucko.
That's just your sense of entitlement talking.
