This is actually the first time it’s been removed – for some reason a bunch of copies of it going back a few days all got nuked at once this morning.
I actually don’t really hard-disagree with removing it. To me it’s extremely productive to the conversation and I didn’t see the point in having to retype all that stuff out for every thread where the exact same arguments come out, but it is also clearly a repost; maybe it’s better for the mods to just evenly apply all the rules to all the comments instead of trying to play the game of “well I feel this particular way about this particular comment so it can stay / so it has to go.”
To me, I’m fine just rephrasing if it comes up in the future or linking to it or something. I don’t get the feeling that mods are deliberately removing it specifically because of the viewpoint of it.
