Maybe they were worried about things escalating? Your comment also didn’t support Hamas so maybe they didn’t think it had value outside of potentially starting a heated debate in the comment section that was unrelated to the article.
And now, the Reddit mod philosophy has arrived here.
With how many communities and instances there are and how wildly they can differ from each other I don’t think that’s true.

Yeah, that occurred to me. I can see anything related to the war as just snowballing into a big shit show and them wanting to nip it in the bud before that happens. In which case, just make that the policy, and don’t feed into the extremely bad-faith “criticize Israel” = “bigotry” equivalence by trying to assign some other reason to my specific comment.
