Don’t go political. it’s not a political discussion.
As for change or the asking of it. Demanding a given status quo remain/exist is just as violent as asking for change. There is litterally no difference in one position or the other when it comes to the idea of argument. change vs no change is just a set of bookends and one does not necessarily outweigh the other... That...push and pull or even locking down, will always be part of an argument or discussion. It can't possibly be any other way - it has no political orientation.
As for deleting a post on your own, sure go ahead. no problemo, here. it’s when moderation removes a post, with out sending it back to the person who might have put considerable effort into putting together a quality argument.
