Personal attacks against community members are against the rules. The AC being discussed is aristarchus, who is banned i.e. he is not a community member. Otherwise criticism of Trump, AOC or anyone else in the world would also be forbidden but that would be ludicrous for a discussion site. As I am sure you will have noted, they also are not community members.
And you are quite right, people can moderate as they see fit. Perhaps everybody who has read the comments in question agree with them?
Finally, the only way we can inform ACs when they are doing something wrong - which I don't think that they are in this case - is to make a comment. You have just done that. That will save anyone else having to do it.

Not a community member? So he is not human? Has no rights? Can be kidnapped by Trumps Gestapo, sent to the camps for "undesirables" and liquidted in an administrative fashion? Not a personal attack? And you wonder why they call you a fascist!!

Well you are correct in parts.

Strange how this position precisely mirrors that of the cretin Runaway1956, when it comes to the fictional sans-papiers.
