Reddit communities with 500k subscribers, for better or for worse, can influence culture at large. Making a post to begin a discussion on the potential dangers of such a large community's moderation policies is not an unworthy endeavor.
This doesn't seem like such a post. Firstly, it doesn't seem to me like beginning a discussion on a Reddit community's moderation policies here has any worth. It might have worth if the discussion was begun in the Reddit community itself but I can't see any worth beginning a discussion here.
Secondly, this post doesn't seem like an effort to begin an earnest discussion about potential dangers of moderation policies at all, it seems more like a mindless "ZOMG1!!!!1 LOOK AT THE FASCISTS ON REDDIT!!! WERE AMAZING AND THEIR STOOPID!!!"
It has been brought up multiple times there but it's banned outright as it's being "bad faith".
I'm not suggesting doing that, I'm just contrasting the difference in value of discussions in the different fora.
Maybe the "value of discussion" you see here is a direct consequence of the fact that normal discussion cannot be had about the topic over there.
I don't see any value though, that's the point.
