Saidit is its own worst enemy - a combination of mean and stupid - which keeps Saidit very small and ultra right-wing

Every free speech platform becomes right wing relative to society because those in power are pushing progressivism. With thier power they have pushed society to the far left relative to rationality. Where truth is allowed to be spoken and debated it wins.

The powerful use intersectionality to divide and conquer. They use CRT to subvert thier greatest rival. And they push LGBT+ to normalize hedonism and bring back pedophilia. They can not be reasoned with, but the useful idiots can.

As far as scaring off users, my experience is that everyone uses insults but to leftists it is far more emotional because they are used to echo chambers that only attack the right. The right is used to it being attacked.

Not only that, the left has many walled gardens to run to where they are coddled and congratulated for repeating the party line. The right has far fewer places to go, and anywhere they go they encounter paid agitators.

Even if no users ever ran, they would eventually be converted and this website would be "right wing" anyway. The red pill is inevitable.

unfortunately 90%, a majority of whom are GOOD but only good by following the NORM .. STAYED ON REDDIT

more are being pushed away now, but most still afraid to be seen as outside the NORM

Things were far less political back then. That was before ShareBlue, before Acorn, before the tools they have now to propagandize. There are people on here paid to create controversy, to pretend to be right wing and be vile, trained to neutralize platforms that allow free speech. What Reddit was back then is not necessarily something saidit can be today.
