Furthermore, even if admins were blocking a specific POV- so what? In order for a POV to look similar to a blocked editor it generally needs to be extreme and with no caring for NPOV. So even if such blocks were occasionally occurring we aren't losing much.
What is an *extreme* POV very much depends on your own POV. People should get banned, if they are either harassing people, violate 3RR or deliberately try to harm Wikipedia. I strongly oppose admins, who block editors for having a specific POV. For NPOV we actually /need/ editors with different POVs as long as they can adept to a cooperative writing. Wikipedia would lose a lot of perspectives, if only editors with "genuine commitment to follow consensus" (majority view?) are welcome.
