They infest and wreck every place that allows free speech.
I'd point out that this is very much a consequence of disallowing speech. When a subject is banned from being discussed in all venues, it will necessarily proliferate in the narrow scope of venues in which it is yet permitted.
Of course, you're completely right. The problem is that the concentration has very bad effects. You have to decide: either get rid of these people (which strengthens this dynamic further), or do nothing and make the place inhospitable for everyone else.
What are the bad effects? Every venue for discussion is going to contain people you vehemently disagree with. Anyone who spent time on actual forums back in the day could tell you that, so it must be something beyond that.
