Well, that's on them. Lots of valuable comments get flagged.

You have a point though. If snobbery and walking in eggshells is what's valued here, why waste my time?

Walking on eggshells is what built the human society since like forever. You can complain about fantasy wokeism online as much as you like, but in the real world a comment like the above would have gotten you punched in every corner of the world.
