I don’t agree with you, but you can think all you want about how annoying or pointless my comment was. That is no excuse for their response, then they doubled down and tried to hide it by abusing their moderator powers. That’s the only part of this that matters.
Your argument is “they only committed a little bit of mod abuse. You need to let it go!”
They sarcastically replied to you and then removed the whole thread. Not just your reply

Toughen up.
No it wasn’t, but perhaps you could admit that your behavior did have a little bit to do with the response. It wasn’t totally out of the blue was it, and you were equally in violation of the sub’s rules.
I made no claims about my comment being perfect. I meant no disrespect or anything, even though I didn’t articulate myself perfectly to display that. Making a comment about an article’s title does not break any rules.
But none of that is the point here. Moderators are held at the very least the same standard as anyone else. As a moderator, they handled such a mild situation very poorly and lashed out, which is already evidence of being unfit to be a moderator. After being downvoted a handful of times they deleted their comment. Then later deleted my comments to even further hide it. My comments broke no rules. Someone else asked what happened and I responded with an answer of the situation, and they deleted that comment as well. They were absolutely abusing their admin to hide their embarrassment.
