Bingo, that's the problem.

Even the "ban what is illegal by law", aside from some common stuff, varies from country to country. Anything above that is pretty much politics.

Like, it's fair to say "okay, this community is to discuss X, we don't do politics coz that's always divisive", but the moment mods try to play moral guide and decide what's wrong think and what isn't any bias they have will be magnified by the power they have.
