We all have it upon us to moderate this forum; in our own posts perhaps.

I agree, but what happens when it's not done? I had 9 replies in this thread and I really didn't feel like getting involved in this nonsense at the time. I thought maybe somebody would drop a few lines to protest this obvious nonsense. 3 weeks later, nothing.

What usually happens is some people add more of the same.

You are hearing opinions you don't like and want moderators to step in
and squash them even though none of the list guidelines have been
violated by the other party.  That isn't moderation but censorship.  As
long as opinions are politely expressed and aimed at the subject matter
instead of being personal, there is no reason not to tolerate dissent.
Besides,  if you want to enforce netiquette, I would have to point out
that you are splitting a single thread into multiple ones and that makes
it harder to follow discussions and ignore a thread if people are not
interested in hearing about the topic.
