Why are 'The Civil War' posts consistently removed by mods now?
It must be the third post I've seen this month that I come across a post about Civil War defaultism, which are removed by moderators.
Even if we think Civil War is low-hanging fruit, it's undeniable that they generally herald a lot of Americanisms butting into an otherwise neutral international conversation. The Civil War tends to be followed by The South, and a lot of specific names in American history that non-Americans aren't obligated to know.
Is Civil War now formally classified as low-hanging fruit? And while we're at it, how do the mods decide what is and isn't low-hanging fruit?

Reddit SW of where?
On a post talking about someone not liking avocados

On a video about Aboriginal Australian culture.
For the record, the “stick or stone” quote is incredibly ignorant, but it kinda pales in comparison to the person listing northern American inventions…

Instagram US laws obviously apply everywhere
Found this video of a guy in Western Australia passing through a random breath test, and the amount of Americans in the comments thinking this is either in the US or thinking their laws apply in other countries is ridiculous.
Just because it might be unlawful in the US, doesn't mean that's the case everywhere else. It's not like it wasn't easy to tell this wasn't in the US either.
