Civil discourse ideally needs a response on the same lines, not unmodified tactics that others too have noted as an adversarial form of debate.

In such cases there are only two alternatives left, completely disengage, which would involve leaving those views unchallenged and that'd not be in the est interests of the caucus, or oppose them further, which sets up the sort of vicious cycle that you noted.
