If most users would follow the rules regarding the pyramid of debate, the site might grow. Most users absolutely hate any form of disagreement with the right-wing, or with the fantasy world of the alt right. "Free speech" is not really appreciated on Saidit. Visitors have noted that Saidit appears to favor paranoid schizophrenia. But the main problems are the attacks on people who don't agree with right-wing or alt-right opinions. I have a list of these unusual visitors, in the "friends" list, most of whom are gone or rarely return.

This is how leftist censorship works.

There is only a few users like socks on this site, but add 1 million of them, put them in echo chambers, watch them organize to shut down right wing voices by treating the "main problems".

Are the new mods of the subs leftists? (no) Do they warn users to follow the pyramid of debate? (sometimes, perhaps) Is this leftist censorship? (no) Will a million leftists join Saidit? (hell no)

The new mods are here primarily for spam removal. I feel I haven't been given the authority to remove comments based on the PoD.

Mods here have warned me for comments that supposedly dragged down the discourse on the PoD, though I argued that my responses were at the same level of the PoD. I am not referring to post removals. I am not sure if others have been warned.

The most interesting mod rules are at /s/debatealtright, where some of them can be applied to any comment a mod doesn't like.

Sorry. I was referring to the new mods recruited by D3rr since he's stepped u to be caretaker of Saidit.
