I just commented on this post and it got removed very quickly. Then I noticed that all of the comments had been removed and the post is locked.

I cannot understand why this happened, as the comments section had seemed pretty reasonable to me.

This seems like bad moderation and I’m now less inclined to post or comment in the world news community. What should I do?

I tried messaging a mod that is seemingly online and actively posting, but I got no response.

    That seems heavy handed IMO, especially since most of the posts were on topic and following the rules as far as I could tell. Why clear it out and lock it if nothing bad has happened? You can see what was posted in the modlog if you’re curious.
