I'm not sure why the author thinks that his posts were on topic because 'it's in the article'. It's clearly not what the article is about. I won't comment on the moderation (banning), but clearly that comment thread was going off the rails.

Getting banned without warning is harsh. Mods here uses it as a last resort. I say this as someone who has formerly triggered warnings around here: appealing to rationality, shared goals, and positive intent can work wonders in some cases.
