Please understand how imageboards like 4chan work before posting nonsense like this. All threads get deleted off 4chan sooner or later. If a thread has no activity for a certain period of time it will get deleted. That's why you'll see anons commenting 'bump' in some threads - they're bumping up the activity rate. It's why board 'slides' work - shills flood the board with artificially popular posts so that other ones get deleted. The old rules (not sure if they're still active) used to automatically delete threads after a certain number of pages of replies were reached.
You've linked to a community run archiving service that isn't owned or run by 4chan. 4plebs aims to preserve important 4chan posts including the EWO ones. Yes, they were deleted off 4chan. No this isn't something sinister.
Yes there is actual censorship and yes it's compromised to a certain extent. But linking to the 4plebs archive of EWO threads that have been normally pruned isn't any kind of proof. There needs to be specific evidence that PG threads have been deleted by the mods.

You're talking about autoprunning and this is not what's been going on 4chan in the last couple of years. There's actual censorship.
4chan is compromised.
