That is really a problem of the present tone. Any time we post in politics we risk being lumped in with whichever team claims similar ground. Even if we did shut them down for a little while there would be a recovery period. Politics would still be a little clumsy for a while. I find it pretty sad that having pointless conflict is more important to some than continuation of community and learning about how real people all over this world really live, think, and be. The Cellar is worth defending.

this is a job for the moderators to handle. we haz moderators, don't we?

if the actions of a few are ruining it for the rest of us, the mods have the right and duty to take action in whatever way they see fit, including deletions, suspensions, etc.

This discussion is what protects the mods from shrill cries of abuse. We need something approaching consensus to justify action.
