Unfortunately it may be too much to be opinionated AND be a moderator.
This post is an attempt to steer this conversation into a more productive future.
Taking your point and adding to it; some add no new information, do no research and do not respond to objective facts objectively. When a person, or a group, bands together adding nothing but divisiveness and bigotry then they should be banned. If people come on here and constantly lie (and I do not mean error with a posted retraction) they are not good members of this community.
I applaud Johnson's action and would hope that effective moderation has the potential to restore this web site to the higher standard that it was once famous for.
I've seen no indication that any of the moderators exhibits any prejudice. Keeping the peace and being rational should be a common sense ethic.
