Comment calling out the deletion: http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/3awe48/paypal_cuts_off_reddit_clone_voat_over_obscenity/csh0uhx?context=6

Censored comment about mods actions in the sub was restored after several hours. http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/3awe48/paypal_cuts_off_reddit_clone_voat_over_obscenity/csgol9x

Censored comment about Voat was reinstated soon http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/3awe48/paypal_cuts_off_reddit_clone_voat_over_obscenity/csh0uhx?context=3

Mod(s) still won't give a proper reason for manually removing those comments. http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/3awe48/paypal_cuts_off_reddit_clone_voat_over_obscenity/csh0uhx

The sidebar of the sub talks about transparency and reforms(cough) after last years' incidents in which automod was used to automatically censor certain keywords like Snowden, Tesla and Bitcoin, but mods' submissions were let through.

What I posted what not against any rule of this sub. Everyone is free to post about what thye'd like. The fact that I can post a news article and upset you this much only make me want to do it all the more.

Yet he/they removed those two comments by using power mod tools that are not available to users. If this is not textbook mod abuse and oppression to remove opposing opinions and inconvenient facts, what is? Subscribers respond by heavily downvoting the mod's comments.
