That's one of the real problems I see so often, moderators feel strongly their side is right therefore anyone on the other side MUST be a bad actor and therefore it's good to get rid of them using any means necessary - I've seen the same happen with people arguing against just stop oil and various other similar things - in the mods minds they're just getting rid of bad faith posters and evil agents but in reality they're silencing anyone who disagrees.
