I can’t imagine that comment was why I was banned. If it was, then it seems to me like they went digging to find an excuse to ban me.

I wasn’t given any reason that comment was removed, either. As I replied to myself there, my only rule I can guess at violating was calling news article authors who don’t link or name the study “fuckers”, but as I said, I’m happy to remove that if it’s unacceptable.
