The company has posted editorials claiming that the more a discussion is censored the higher it is in quality, and that that isn't censorship at all. Orwell would clap at such impeccable doublethink. Disqus embraces all kinds of unethical conduct, like shadow bans, fake posting (where it seems to the poster the comment was posted but it wasn't), post hiding via voting (aka argumentum ad populum, one of the most basic fallacies), and allowing moderators to be openly hostile toward some minority groups while simultaneously blocking posts containing innocuous words. Even removing the words the overzealous system flags, prior to posting the comment, is enough to have the post blocked regardless.

Disqus seems to be someone thumbing their nose at others more than anything.

Tip for consumers:
Disqus censorship has increased with time. Now, for instance, it requires that a person set up an account.

Products used:
Disqus is used to provide the pretense of discussion with articles.
