All content, whether you agree with it or not, must be moderated according to the guidelines. If the reported reason is wrong but the content still breaks the community guidelines, it must still be blocked.

Pay attention to the context, purpose, and comments when moderating. Consider if the user had bad intentions or if the wording was simply not ideal. People sometimes express themselves poorly; in such cases, be a bit more lenient. If you’re unsure, it’s better to allow or skip.

If there is a more suitable channel for the content, move it there rather than reporting or blocking it.
