My ban for saying 'gerrymandering is a design flaw' in a map subreddit

I posted a comment in a cartography forum about how district lines look like spaghetti and got a 7 day ban for 'political incitement.' I mean, I wasn't even talking about a specific party, just the general concept of drawing voting zones. The mod said my phrasing could 'stir division' but I was literally praising a map's geometry until that point. After the ban, I messaged them twice and got no reply, so I just moved to a smaller GIS community. Has anyone else been silenced for stating a neutral observation that got read as a hot take?
