Indeed - I think I can count perhaps 6 users who are mainly responsible for this trend of propaganda. It seems Saidit is one of the places where a right-wing enthusiast can spread misinformation and disinformation, get plenty of attention, and thereby feel self-affirmed. But it's also interesting to see that there are quite a few users here who occasionally let those 6 know that they're wrong. I think there would be more engagement at this site if there were more of a mix of posts. My reason for joining Saidit is mainly curiosity about the group of people who believe in right-wing conspiracies. I'd rather avoid Parler and TheDonald. Saidit seems to parrot some of that material.

What is interesting is that a lot of users here hate Donald Trump and are mostly moderates. The main threads do seem to come from Trumpists though, but that's not always true. u/FediNetizen has made plenty of posts which generate conversation, and that dude is super-establishment.

Saidit is such an 'interesting' place
