| Nov 19, 2022 at 2:35 | comment | added | Italian Philosopher | No, it wouldn't be, IF it was indeed a personal opinion and actually a thoughtful and valid question - which on past moderator action history is unlikely to be the case: by the time a mod intervenes there is most likely a good reason. The community as a whole tends to be more trigger-happy than mods. But you probably need to give some examples to get any kind of solid answer. | |

| Nov 19, 2022 at 2:32 | comment | added | JJJ Mod | The main site is mostly about governmental politics. I don't think the question fits there so I moved it to our meta site as it had already garnered two community votes to be moved here. This is mostly under the assumption that your question is about our site and our moderators. | |
