I think the GP is suggesting that as soon as you are moderating speech, a powerful moderating authority can quickly lose trust by deleting discussions. Or it could be that the moderating authority already is untrusted so deletions legitimate or not are always suspect.

The GP is very explicitly saying that the rules are being used to delete the discussion because it is inconvenient:

> anti-misinformation rules being used to delete inconvenient discussion

But we don't actually know if that's why it was deleted. It's a presumption on whatshisface's part.

I think you’ve missed the point now twice. It’s the lack of trust that is the issue here that leads to that assumption. The lack of trust is the fault of the moderator not of the GP.

I've only responded once so I don't know how you figure I missed the point twice.

The top poster made a claim of fact, that anti-misinformation rules were used as a front to silence criticism. Whether that fact is true or not is the point I'm interested in. I get that you're interested in something else, but I'm not. You get to be interested in what you want, but you don't get to claim that the top poster said something other than what they did.

> The lack of trust is the fault of the moderator not of the GP.

Big assumption. If the moderator has acted in good faith and whatshisface still doesn't trust them, that may say more about whatshisface than the moderator.

Sorry but the assumption is on on your part. I’m sorry you can’t see that.
