> If it can behave

The thing about morality is its about how you "should" behave not how you "can" behave.

If you think its a-ok when /r/conservative does it, then by all means sure. I mostly object to the hypocrisy here. The original comment found /r/conservative's mod policy objectionable. Either it should be ok for everyone or it should be ok for noone. The part i'm objecting to is the implicit idea that its ok when people you like do something but not ok when people you don't like do it.

As long as you apply your moral views consistently i'm fine with it, regardless of whatever they are.

There is nothing hypocritical about being okay with the idea of moderation in the abstract while disagreeing with a specific implementation of it.
