If it is just a case of one or two people being uncivil, they will just delete the comments. If an article/post gets a bunch of flags they are responding to the community, which is signallng that the post should not be part of the community and the whole thread will be locked. See comment above, it appears to be automated. |

That's correct: if a comment either (1) gets too many more downvotes than upvotes or (2) gets flagged, it's automatically killed.
Also, users can "vouch" for a dead comment or article to bring it back to life if they believe it has been wrongly killed.
