Noticeable or not, you would think a moderator would look at the context of the rest of the conversation when they decide to start deleting stuff. because where there is 1 insult, there is probably more. I try not to respond with insults about someone even if they directly insult me but sometimes it is difficult.
Also I see your comments above have been deleted now..... I doubt you will believe me but I didn't flag them.
It's interesting to me that apparently they don't like it when you insult a specific user but if you insult an entire group, apparently it's ok. (?)
Like if someone said something like idk.... "Libertarians are complete sh*tbags, f**k all of them " for example..... I mean there's not really any political argument of substance, policy or anything there. But I think it's ok? Not sure tbh
