There's actually still a lot of fascists here that spread their point of view and say the same lies and conspiracies against trans people, against Jews etc. I didn't even find an Israel subreddit that is actually about the country, about what's beautiful there for example, and not about how "Jews control the world, zionism sucks". I visited s/Jews and s/Israel. Its pathetic. Also, there's a lot of conspiracies that the coronavirus doesn't exist. You'll spread those until it will touch you personally, and before that you won't believe it? Is this how conservatism works? Literally the same as with climate change. We actually NEED lockdown and its a fact. And also too much pro trump things.

This section reads like a liberal astroturfer super-summary... :-/

I don't really feel this is completely fair. On a site that is explicitly hands-off about shaping the community they want to see, maybe it would be appropriate. But that's not SaidIt's approach -- SaidIt takes an active interest in cultivating the kind of community they want to see. Whatever the result is, it's a result of the cultivator's efforts and their choices about what to remove or not to remove, what to encourage or discourage. There's been plenty of intervention along these lines.
