Imagine if we had editors who belonged to the KKK and made it obvious they belonged to the KKK with the following pattern of behavior: making contributions about European history while making biased edits against pro-African or African-American political causes, along with a rigid obsession with mentioning in the lead paragraphs of [[OJ Simpson]], [[John Muhammed]], et. al. that these convicted or suspected murderers were black, and making posts to the listserv under the pseudonym of "David Duke".

Sure. Their inability to follow NPOV is a problem, and if that's all they do, then they're of net harm to the project. Their membership of any particular ideological following is not itself the problem.
