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.

    I always appreciated when Reddit mods that locked a post explained why in a pinned comment. Is that possible here too? That would help the clueless users like myself who find a post late through RSS.

      We can’t pin comments yet, unfortunately, but sometimes folks in the community will help by upvoting explanations if it was an understandable lock & explanation. I’ve done that once here & observed that, at least.
