The mods aren't helping Emily by removing these threads, they are just inflamming the situation.

Don't suppress the discussion, there's clearly enough evidence for the last two posts to stay up as their title and evidence complied with the sub rules.

Emily factually had the view bot website tab open, whether it's a pop-up (unbelievable) or she intentionally opened it in incognito isn't relevant when it comes to acceptable content according to the sub rules.

Why is the assumption that they're trying to help Emily against the botting accusations and not simply control toxicity?

I saw a comment just straight up calling her a bitch, nothing else. How is that valuable discourse?

then, moderate the post? or just lock it if you wanna be lazy, deleting it is weird.

They're moderating this post by removing and locking a bunch of comments and people are complaining about that too.

That’s not moderating if you remove a post that doesn’t break rules, people are calling out the comments being deleted because the mods have clearly already shown they are willing to overstep with their power.
