I don't think you can lay all the blame on our long suffering moderators. I suspect in the majority of post deletions, thread closures or censures/banishment of posters, it was a thinner skinned colleague that flagged a post they didn't like and that brought the entire thread under scrutiny. As FB notes, a single reference to the political angle of a topic won't arouse much emotion anywhere. If it leads to argument then all bets are off.
