    Mod hat: I do not agree with this comment either, but that is not an excuse to break our civility rule. If you want to talk about why you think this person is incorrect, do it without insults.

    Edit: I should add that this applied to OP as well, who has been banned for multiple civility rule violations.

      User hat:

      You deleted a comment I made because you said it was incivil (not going to repeat it, but it’s in the modlog)

      Was it because I pointed out that they were denying a genocide?

      That’s the only thing that was remotely personal, and if that breaks the rules is it acceptable to instead just link sources explaining how Israel is committing a genocide?

      Genocidal denial is just a pretty big deal in my eyes, so I want to know how mods are ok with addressing it. I felt that I was following the sidebar by commenting on the argument and not the user, but apparently I misunderstood something.

      I wouldn’t have mentioned it, by their comment denying genocide is literally just a few comments down this chain…
