    Taken as it is with no context, I would agree with you. However, based on what others have revealed about your removed posts, and your own comments in this thread, I’m concluding that whichever mod removed your post was merely the first one that happened to see it, it was going to happen regardless.

      But it isn’t just me. It’s a couple hundred people. Who have voted YES, enthusiastically, by their participation. They clearly want to continue talking.

      But one person’s opinion overrides that? That’s crazy.

        Sounds like you have everything you need to start your own sub that you can moderate however you want.

            “If you’re being oppressed don’t subjugate yourself to your oppressor.” does address your point.

            You don’t want to fix the problem; you just want to complain 🙄

        I understand the frustration, and I think we’ve all seen locked posts we would like to have participated in. But can I check what you’re actually arguing, are you saying that if there’s ever significant interest in a post (hundreds of comments etc) then it’s not appropriate for one person to close it?

        If I make a “Trump just did something crazy!” post in a Android community, and I get lots of responses and spirited debate, is it wrong for the mod to close it because it’s completely unrelated to the community?

        If I post some super hot NSFW “does my ass look good in this thong?” post in NoStupidQuestions community, is it wrong for the mod to remove it for breaking community rules? Even if it’s a question and it’s getting lots of up votes and comments?
