In order to delete a node you need to know its full path. This means you you'll need to run a query to find the node with starCount equal to 0 and then delete each of them individually.

Something like this:

DatabaseReference ref = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("posts");
Query query = ref.orderByChild("starCount").equalTo(0);
query.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
    @Override
    public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
        for (DataSnapshot postSnapshot: dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
            postSnapshot.getRef().removeValue();
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
        throw databaseError.toException();
    }
}
