I’d understand if they were a random user, but a mod should already have at least some understanding about a community’s topic.

But worse to me are their comments in that post calling the people responding “childish trolls in this community”. I do not think that this is appropriate for a moderator.

    Yes. And that doesn’t excuse it; a moderator should be better than the community they moderate.

      That’s honestly an unreasonable expectation of volunteers, and especially not one I’d want mods to measure themselves by. A mod who thinks he is better than the common users would be a massive asshole.
