~~They will also delete any comments that complain about AI at all, even though there is no rule against it.~~

/--edit--/
After second look, that's not entirely true, but they definitely have a trigger finger for it and leave plenty of other "off-topic" comments.

Considering the amount of posts deleted, it should have just been locked instead of nuking comments with a negative view of AI

Here's the thread in the screenshot:

Also, here you can see other's seem to think this was an attempt to silence dissent (though, I don't think that this coming from drag is a great point for it):

Just look at this completely insane comment from an instance admin:

nope, not like that.

people aren’t going on the pirate bay and saying, “i made this movie! it’s my creation! i’m a bittorrent director!”.

that would be like AI artists stealing things….
i don’t care about them copying things to train their models. I care about people taking the output and posing as artists.

That is fine, I can agree with most of that. It's not stealing, it's just slapping a new label on something. Maybe plagiarism is a better term.
