text: Let me be quick to state that the moderators at First Things delete incendiary posts about civil war and the like. My apologies; I should've made that clear in my post. From what I gather the commenters are in ongoing conflict with the editorial writers, who tend to oppose Trump.
  
  I don't read First Things often, either, and will do so even less now that they've banned me (apparently for posting the same criticisms of the GOP I've made here). In my view First Things is fostering a culture of paranoia and alarmism, and the illusion of persecution, on the Catholic right. This problem isn't going to go away after the election.
