That by definition is censorship.
Yeah, very substantive commentary there, lol. If any trivial bit of text that takes a person two seconds to create qualifies as "commentary" and "Fair Use" then what you are essentially saying is that no piece of content or creative work should enjoy any copyright or ownership protection at all. If that's all it takes, then all it requires is one person out of the four billion or so in the world to type "That's funny, ha ha" under or over an old or new song, movie, app, piece of software or whatever to strip it of any protection under the law and make it free for all to use forever without anyone ever paying for it. That's as preposterous as you suggesting you are being censored in any way.
