This is demonstrably false, bigots thrive on "just asking questions" which is a well documented trolling tactic, and the replies to their comment will remain even if you remove the bigotry.
But there IS active harm - you leaving these transphobic ableist comments up lets neurodiverse trans people like myself know that you prioritise your need for "neutrality" and "meaningful debate" (which is not happening here, you're just providing more platform for a bigot to spread their bigotry and misinformation) over our safety and inclusion.
Obviously you only respect your own opinion then.
Thanks for making it clear that people like me are not welcome or safe in communities you run, I'll be avoiding them all, as I'm sure others will.
But hey, well done you, you defended a bigot!
