"When asked why he blocked me, David Gerard responded by saying that he saw no community support for not blocking me. I suggest that this could be because of a chilling effect of blocking people who criticise admins.
I do not know how to make this point in a way which is more acceptable to the list. I hypothesis that if people are blocked for trying to hold admins accountable, the number of people trying to hold admins accountable will fall.

I disagree, I see users question of admin's actions all the time, if you want proof just go to any one of the active admins' user talk pages and look, you'll see that even though they may not be the majority of discussions there will still be topics about their decisions whether it be blocking a user or reverts or protections on a page. I would show you diffs but I do not feel that it would be polite to post links to other users' pages in this situation.
