Precisely.

The real problem is inflammatory behavior.

The name calling and mudslinging that erupts in threads titled: "George
Bush is a So and So" or "Liberals are All Such and Such" oozes
throughout every thread in the group.
The wars that start elsewhere creep into the "on-topic" threads as soon
as one of the participants in the current flame war addresses the topic
and his or her antagonist(s) come screaming in to make nasty personal
remarks.

The problem is inflammatory behavior. Nicely put.
