I can't really place majority in either. I have seen sites that are definitely more #3. Those types haven't overtaken saidit as badly as others.

Saidit usually has a few outliers at least to call out an alternate view, but they aren't a majority so still not #4 enough either.

There are a lot more low quality submissions than there used to be, so more to sift through to look for good posts.

Do you mind to provide some names so that I can check out their ideas?
I curate Direct Change ideas and would love to add new ones to the list, as well as engage with others on them.

Nah. Not right now, anyways. I will follow you a bit, though.

It is all so bizarre
It is like, everyone is so mesmerized by design fail videos that they don't care for Paradise

Design fails are entertaining but it's problematic when that's all that they watch.

Something that's frustrating for me is when you see some people getting that certain things are fake, psyop, propaganda but then turn around and buy all in to something else.

Like, some coworkers could see through the jab but then in the next minute were obsessed about that stupid Johnny Depp/Amber Heard bs or other dumb celeb fake news.

I'd even had one acquaintance finally took the jab because he said they made him, which was a lie. His job never had mandates so he just caved under propaganda but didn't want to admit it to me.

Like, if people who can see can still be distracted or persuaded to do what they know is wrong, it's just a tough battle to try and get people who can continue holding the line to try and do what's right. If celeb news or popular opinion is enough to sway some who can actually see, then who will be left when there is more pressure?

Well, I was having dissidents in mind, not the compliant
Everyone swarms to s/TIA and focuses on dystopia - rather than discuss actual solutions out of tyranny
