Well, it depends. Back on the other site I mod (largely political, no obvious site stance on any specific issue) you get the same from both sides; the moderators are always biased towards the opposite kind of politics. If we delete their posts / thread or ban them, we're clearly showing we agree with their opponents rather than that they just broke rules which have nothing to do with political beliefs. This can lead to the fun of being called a Nazi and a Communist on alternate days, or people saying we must be pro-abortion because we don't regard posting disgusting images as a legitimate debating technique.
It's much like, say, Jack Thompson bleating that the courts want to disbar him for his views rather than because he's abusing the court system to carry out his unhinged personal vendetta. To a certain mindset, anything but instant agreement is persecution.
