The communities that I've been a part of which I liked the best, which seemed to have the most interesting people, were also the nastiest and least tolerant.
If you can't call a retard a retard, you end up with a bunch of retards, and then the other people leave. When eventually someone nice came to power, this is invariably what happened.
In my experience, actually ejecting disruptive people from an online community can have a powerful positive effect, but replying to them with insults only encourages them and achieves nothing.
