It's also misunderstanding of what culture/spam really is. Outside of the actual automated link spam which is obvious, it's an extremely fuzzy area with very subjective rules. What you delete as spam defines the culture.

/r/conservative is a shining example of moderators defining the culture of their subreddit by deleting comments and posts with an extremely heavy hand.

What one person defines as curating for culture, another person defines as oppressive censorship. Subjective of course, how much freedom do you want in a big sub vs some niche sub, etc.
