In modern US political discourse, there is no nuance in “us vs them”. Your moderators that are meant to just tag “advocating for the mass killing of gay people” will also put a “here’s why I think you should vote for Trump” post in the same category.

Any moderated system depends on trust that moderators will act fairly. If moderators begin categorizing content into labels that they don't belong in, presumably either the moderator would be removed or the service will slowly devolve and go away.

I strongly disagree with this position and I believe that such a rhetoric-focused moderation tool as the chiller examples in the article will assist in my desire for intellectual discussion without dealing with inflamed nonsense.
That being said, if this affects one political group more heavy-handedly than another because their political strategy is more inflamed, I’m willing to hear less from them or only hear from the members who can communicate in a sensible manner.
