I got that, that's why I say you often more detail on a situation. Because it certainly can be that someone will use comments to harass someone but you need to see the content of the comments to really judge that. You can't say that commenting on everyone of a person's submissions is harassment, for example. People can also rile up others without even meaning to, so that alone doesn't work as a good criteria either. Ideally, there should be the option to block that person from posting which solves the problem without getting moderators involved and then, if the person circumvents that block to continue, harassment is far more clear cut.
"If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind."
