Why would moderators of Rust communities censor users for critiquing a critique? Of course some of it is dismissive, ignorant, or made in bad faith. But it isn't mod's job to quality-gate Rust related content — your blog post wasn't gated either. Unless people are harassing you — it is an expected behavior of any community.
If you only ever critiqued the project, no matter the faith, you will not be taken seriously — that's a FOSS rule, basically.
