I didn’t compare anything to genocide. The other user is the only person who has used that word. They are also the only person between the two of us who has advocated for violence. All I did was point out that destruction of innocent people‘s property is wrong no matter who the perpetrator is.

I'd not recommend you repeat whatever you wrote, but it looks pretty clear cut like you were twisting the concept of genocide to unfairly malign advocacy for the underserved and that's why your comment got removed. Mod can probably clarify, but the mere word "genocide" isn't bad or banned.

It’s not that hard to look up the mod log if you are curious. But if you honestly think that busting headlights is “advocacy for the underserved” then I am afraid that you are part of the problem that I was trying to point out.

I'm just supposing what they might call it. Just sayin, doesn't look like that comment removal was frivolous.
