That’s an unfair -— more than that, an untrue -— characterization, since there is no Church law or canonical stipulation gainst a divorced person, per se. receiving Holy Communion, and NO FReeper that I know of would say such a thing.
And I’ve been all over those threads.
I’m surprised by your post.

Well, now you know one.
There are at least twelve threads per day here dissecting Amoris Laetitia into it's tiniest sub-atomic bits. All over the minutia of under what circumstances the Church will allow divorced and remarried people to take Communion (an argument that I personally find very silly given that the Church will not stop people like Nancy Pelosi and Tim Kaine who openly flip the bird to the Church on abortion from taking it)
Meanwhile the man says things that openly, brazenly promote Marxism and Communism that barely draw 1/10 the attention of the FR Catholic Caucus. Just the other day the man actually said that ONLY COMMUNISTS TRULY UNDERSTAND HOW TO THINK LIKE A CHRISTIAN!! That did not draw a tiny fraction of the response from Catholics here that diving into the minutia of annulments had drawn.
Let some divorcee take the Eucharist under the wrong pretenses, and it's between their conscience and God. Keep promoting Communist regimes and millions of people are gonna die.
No offense, but I fail to see the proportionality.
