MSN, Community guidelines and standards being inappropriately applied.

I have been experiencing issues with posting comments on MSN for the past few months. My comments are often flagged as not complying with the community guidelines, despite my efforts to carefully craft them to avoid offending or accusing anyone. My intention is to provide supplemental information and alternative perspectives on topics and reports. I have also noticed that many news stories on MSN contain inaccurate and false information, and comments are often disabled for these stories. This creates a biased environment on the MSN website, as it does not allow for alternative information to be presented. I believe my comments do not violate the community standards and I would like to be able to resume posting comments like the one below, as sometimes presenting facts and refuting poor ideas is necessary.

“To explore the topic, I recommend looking into the double slit experiment and Schrodinger’s cat. Rather than simply providing answers, it is important to seek understanding by researching and contemplating the materials. Asking for answers is not affective, especially with complex topics like this, as human beings tend to have biases that hinder their ability to seek the reality of the situation due to cognitive dissidence. All I've given you some clues on what to research and I wish you the best of luck in your pursuit of understanding.”

    It has nothing to do with politics. Paranoia is not called for. It is unmonitored bots. Only they could think the word "Sigh" was profanity.

    Never any explanation of what the violation is. [Mod Removed]. I don't go after people, I am not rude, I Invite adult discussion/dissension. Why are people so afraid of conflicting points of view?

    MSN 'Community Guidelines' are INSANE. I can't post, "I am gay". [Among other things] It's considered by these guidelines to be 'hate speech'. How ridiculous. Shame on MSN.

    What would be nice is for the bot that flags posts as violating to explain just what about a post violates the guidelines. Just pointing users to a policy that is telling us "you know what you're doing so stop it" and with some of the posts I've had flagged it isn't clear what caused the issue. I see comments from others that do use demeaning terms that somehow are just fine with the filters so it is really confusing for those of us who are responding in what we think is a respectful, on topic and intelligent manner getting flagged. Can you please expand on the policy and explain to the rest of us how we can tell what is abusive?

    Thanks,

    Tom
