Personally I hesitate to mention it due to fear of being labeled as alt-right even though I'm not. When I go to my front page there is mostly politics; I'm subbed into some related subs but still I don't want the front page to consist of most of their posts, despite being subscribed. Reddit needs to do something to piss off lots of non-political people I guess, that would be the moment to seize.

I appreciate your candor.
Personally I hesitate to mention it due to fear of being labeled as alt-right even though I'm not.
See that's the problem though... it's really not an alt-right site. They've put chilling effects on you, so you don't speak, even though you do believe in what's here, simply because you're afraid of a false label being used against you.
We can only have freedom of speech if people actually stand up for it. And if people won't stand up for saidit out of fear, then saidit will eventually fail. So I recommend overcoming that fear of how others label you, and instead help others who seek real information, to find that information, so that humanity might progress forward.

It would be interesting to know what percentage of people fear being labeled as right wing vs. fear being labeled as left wing. I think there are likely many more closet right wing as opposed to closeted left wing people. The shrillness and hysteria of the mainstream left has silenced many people.
