I am only commenting on this in the context of community standards and user generated content and should not be extrapolated to all content in all other contexts.
In case of spam - Emails do show you spam emails, just hide them behind a spam folder. So instead of outright removal, it is possible to use similar techniques. And let users decide whether they ever want to see spam comments.
Seems like you're just back to square one there.
You're making a list of unacceptable content. Whatever you put on there, someone's going to disagree.
Whether it's automated or not probably isn't the issue.
I see a lot of comment sections ruined by the typical bot spam (e.g. "I earn $5000 a minute working from home for Google").
