At least 97% of prominent accounts on BitChute and Telegram were active in June. But on Parler, just 105 of the 200 prominent accounts identified published at least one post during the month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These prominent accounts produced a sizable volume of content over the study period: a total of more than 585,000 posts across the seven sites. And the number of posts produced on each site varied in ways often tied to the structure and format of the platforms themselves. Prominent accounts on the chat-oriented site Telegram, for instance, produced by far the most individual posts \u2013 more than 275,000 in the month of June alone. Prominent users on video-focused sites like BitChute and Rumble, meanwhile, produced only about one-twentieth as many posts in the same time period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Across all the sites, though, a minority of highly active users were responsible for a disproportionate share of the posts from these prominent accounts. The 20 most active prominent accounts on each site produced at least 46% \u2013 and as much as 80% \u2013 of all the posts the Center collected during the month of June. This sort of top-heavy posting behavior is a <a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/pew-research-center-decoded\/contending-with-the-80-20-rule-when-studying-online-behavior-14040af11453\">common feature<\/a> of many online platforms that the Center has examined in its previous research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 data-is-section=\"true\" data-wp-context=\"{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;prominent-accounts-that-posted-during-the-month-of-june-engaged-in-widespread-discussion-of-topics-like-guns-abortion-and-vaccines&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"{&quot;namespace&quot;:&quot;prc-block\\\/table-of-contents&quot;}\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"prominent-accounts-that-posted-during-the-month-of-june-engaged-in-widespread-discussion-of-topics-like-guns-abortion-and-vaccines\">Prominent accounts that posted during the month of June engaged in widespread discussion of topics like guns, abortion and vaccines<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To examine the nature of the topical discussion among these prominent accounts, researchers used a keyword-based approach to identify posts mentioning five broad issues linked to contemporaneous news events or ongoing social developments. They then calculated the share of \u201cactive accounts\u201d on each platform \u2013 those that posted something during the month \u2013 who mentioned each topic at least once.[7.numoffset=&#8221;7&#8243; Keywords were matched against the text of posts and the title, description, and URL of any links. Content within videos was not included. <a href=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/journalism\/2022\/10\/06\/alternative-social-media-methodology\/\">See the methodology <\/a>for the list of specific keywords used to identify these topics.] <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The topics examined were:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Abortion <\/em>(including the Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women\u2019s Health Organization that overturned Roe v. Wade)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>Guns, gun control and shootings<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>LGBTQ issues<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>The Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol (and related hearings)<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>Vaccines<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All five of these topics received considerable attention across the sites: Each topic was mentioned by at least a quarter of active prominent accounts on <em>every<\/em> site, and in many cases these topics were discussed by a majority of accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While there were some site-level differences in the overall share of active accounts who engaged with these topics, the issue of guns and gun rights was an especially popular subject area among prominent accounts on nearly all of these sites. Of the topics examined, guns were discussed by the largest share of active accounts on five of these seven sites and by the second-largest share on another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discussion of the Jan. 6 attack, in contrast, exhibited more variation across platforms. The Jan. 6 attack was the least-discussed of these topics on three platforms (BitChute, Gab and Telegram), but was the second-<em>most<\/em> discussed \u2013 after guns and gun rights \u2013 on Parler and Truth Social. The Jan. 6 attack was mentioned by at least half of active prominent accounts during the month on Parler and Truth Social, as well as on Gab \u2013 where each of the five topics was discussed by two-thirds or more of active prominent accounts in June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Discussion of LGBTQ issues was also common. A majority of active prominent accounts discussed this topic on both Gab and Truth Social, while more than four-in-ten such accounts mentioned it on Parler, Telegram, BitChute and Rumble. On only one platform (Gettr) was it the <em>least<\/em> mentioned of the five topics examined in the analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-640-wide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/journalism\/2022\/10\/06\/content-from-prominent-alternative-social-media-accounts-highlights-extreme-vaccine-skepticism-anxiety-over-lgbtq-issues\/pj_2022-10-06_alt-social_4-02\/\"><img data-dominant-color=\"e4e2e2\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #e4e2e2;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-02-1.png?resize=480,299 480w, https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-02-1.png?resize=782,488 782w, https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-02-1.png?resize=960,599 960w, https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-02-1.png?resize=1200,748 1200w, https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-02-1.png?resize=1280,798 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 480px, (max-width: 782px) 782px, 640px\" height=\"399\" width=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-02-1.png?w=640\" alt=\"A chart showing that Widespread discussion of issues such as guns, abortion and vaccines among prominent alternative social media accounts that posted in June\" class=\"wp-image-181470 not-transparent\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 data-is-section=\"true\" data-wp-context=\"{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;Phrases-used-to-discuss-these-topics-highlight-non-mainstream-worldviews-and-sometimes-offensive-language&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"{&quot;namespace&quot;:&quot;prc-block\\\/table-of-contents&quot;}\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Phrases-used-to-discuss-these-topics-highlight-non-mainstream-worldviews-and-sometimes-offensive-language\">Phrases used to discuss these topics highlight non-mainstream worldviews and sometimes offensive language<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-callout has-beige-background-color has-ui-beige-very-light-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> Note: This section of the report includes discussion of topics from posts on alternative social media sites, including verbatim quotes. Some of these phrases may be linked to misinformation or contain offensive content.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The words used by prominent alternative social media accounts to discuss issues such as vaccines or the Jan. 6 attack help reveal the unique language, issues of salience and influential figures within these online spaces. After identifying and measuring the prevalence of these topics at a broad level, researchers collected all the posts on each platform mentioning each topic. They then calculated the most common two- or three-word phrases (\u201cbi-grams\u201d or \u201ctri-grams\u201d) contained in these posts. (See the <a href=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/journalism\/2022\/10\/06\/alternative-social-media-methodology\">methodology<\/a> for more details.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like many collections of unstructured discussion, the posts about any given topic contained a wide range of terms and phrasings. With some exceptions, the most common expressions within topics typically were mentioned in anywhere from 1% to 10% of all posts mentioning that topic. Even in these relatively small percentages, though, many common themes stand out. (See <a href=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/journalism\/2022\/10\/06\/alternative-social-media-appendix-c-detailed-tables-for-content-analysis-of-posts-from-prominent-accounts-from-june-2022\">Appendix C<\/a> for a full list of the top phrases within posts about each topic, as well as their prevalence.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-jan-6-attack-on-the-u-s-capitol-and-related-hearings-discussion-of-real-time-events-mixed-with-contempt-for-the-process\">The Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol and related hearings: Discussion of real-time events mixed with contempt for the process<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When these prominent accounts discussed the Jan. 6 attack, they often mentioned individuals (former President Donald Trump, House select committee member Rep. Liz Cheney) or entities (such as the Capitol Police and Secret Service) who were involved on the day of the attack or referenced in the congressional hearings happening at the time of the data collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to discussing factual elements of the Jan. 6 attack and subsequent hearings, many common phrases used in these posts also demonstrate the extent to which the prominent accounts on these alternative social media sites disagreed vehemently with the fundamental legitimacy of the proceedings. The term \u201cpolitical prisoner\u201d appeared in the 15 most-mentioned phrases in posts about these events on all seven alternative social media sites, while \u201cunselect committee\u201d and \u201cwitch hunt\u201d each appeared among the most-used terms on four sites. Other common terms in these posts, depending on the site, included \u201cDC gulag,\u201d \u201csham hearing,\u201d \u201cdeep state\u201d and \u201ckangaroo court.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"vaccines-frequent-references-to-extreme-vaccine-skeptics-and-potential-risks-of-vaccination\">Vaccines: Frequent references to extreme vaccine skeptics and potential risks of vaccination<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most-mentioned phrases in vaccine-related posts from these prominent accounts suggest a deep skepticism about vaccines and the supposed risks of vaccination. The most common terms in these posts regularly mentioned generalized, unspecified risks like \u201cside effect\u201d and \u201cadverse reaction,\u201d as well as specific if rare conditions potentially caused by vaccines like \u201cblood clot\u201d and \u201cheart inflammation.\u201d They also included diseases or symptoms that the current <a href=\"https:\/\/www.factcheck.org\/2021\/06\/scicheck-research-rebuts-baseless-claims-linking-covid-19-vaccines-to-male-infertility\/\">medical literature<\/a> finds <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/news\/factcheck\/2022\/07\/11\/fact-check-false-claim-sads-linked-covid-19-vaccine-unvaccinated\/7712903001\/\">little evidence<\/a> of being linked to vaccines, such as \u201c[sudden adult] death syndrome\u201d or \u201csperm count.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These common phrases also prominently featured the names of several influential vaccine deniers. The name of author and journalist Naomi Wolf \u2013 whose Twitter account was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-us-canada-57374241\">suspended in June 2021<\/a> for repeatedly posting misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines \u2013 was among the most mentioned vaccine-related terms on four of these seven sites. And discussions of vaccines on BitChute and Rumble often mentioned Stew Peters (a former bounty hunter-turned-radio host who has produced a documentary that associates COVID-19 vaccines with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politifact.com\/factchecks\/2022\/apr\/19\/watch-water\/stew-peters-film-watch-water-ridiculously-claims-c\/\">satanic forces<\/a>), as well as conservative influencer Dr. Jane Ruby, who has promoted the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/brucelee\/2021\/07\/10\/graphene-oxide-in-pfizer-covid-19-vaccines-here-are-the-latest-unsupported-claims\/?sh=28b157a074d7\">false claim<\/a> that COVID-19 vaccines are composed entirely of foreign substances, and that \u201cthere\u2019s no other reason for this to be in here except to murder people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other prevalent terms referenced conspiracy theories about the nefarious purposes of the COVID-19 vaccines (\u201cBill Gates\u201d) or the source of the COVID-19 virus itself (\u201cWuhan coronavirus,\u201d \u201cCCP [Chinese Communist Party] virus\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"abortion-focus-on-law-and-policy-after-dobbs-ruling\">Abortion: Focus on law and policy after Dobbs ruling<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More than the rest of these topics, discussion of abortion was dominated by a singular entity. \u201cSupreme Court\u201d was the most-mentioned phrase within these posts by a substantial margin, appearing in as many as 32% of abortion-related posts depending on the site \u2013 a reflection of the Supreme Court\u2019s Dobbs v. Jackson Women\u2019s Health Organization ruling that was leaked in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2022\/05\/02\/supreme-court-abortion-draft-opinion-00029473\">early May 2022<\/a> before its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2022\/06\/24\/politics\/dobbs-mississippi-supreme-court-abortion-roe-wade\/index.html\">June 24 release<\/a>. Other common phrases in these posts across sites included \u201cPlanned Parenthood,\u201d \u201c[crisis] pregnancy centers,\u201d and \u201ckilling babies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"gun-control-discussion-of-high-profile-shootings-and-supreme-court-rulings-worries-about-new-gun-control-efforts\">Gun control: Discussion of high-profile shootings and Supreme Court rulings, worries about new gun control efforts<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Similarly, many common terms in posts mentioning guns referenced contemporaneous events like the May 24 school shooting in Uvalde, Texas (\u201cRobb Elementary,\u201d \u201cpolice chief\u201d) or the June 23 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scotusblog.com\/2022\/06\/in-6-3-ruling-court-strikes-down-new-yorks-concealed-carry-law\/\">Supreme Court ruling<\/a> striking down New York state\u2019s concealed carry weapons law (\u201cSupreme Court,\u201d \u201cNew York,\u201d \u201cconcealed carry\u201d). Another common set of terms were related to concern and opposition to potential gun control regulations or restrictions. These included phrases like \u201ctake away [our guns],\u201d \u201cfalse flag\u201d and \u201cMatthew McConaughey\u201d (who made several speeches and lobbying efforts <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2022\/06\/15\/matthew-mcconaughey-lobbies-up-for-gun-push-00040099\">on behalf of gun control efforts<\/a> in the weeks following the Uvalde school shooting).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"lgbtq-issues-concerns-over-children-and-drag-queen-story-hour\">LGBTQ issues: Concerns over children and \u2018drag queen story hour\u2019<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Posts from these prominent accounts mentioning LGBTQ issues covered a number of topics and concerns, but frequently focused on perceived threats or dangers to children. Some 10% of all posts mentioning LGBTQ issues across these seven platforms included words related to pedophilia (such as \u201cpedo\u201d) or child grooming (such as \u201cgroomer\u201d). Other terms that appeared in these top phrases included \u201cprotect child,\u201d \u201c[number] year old,\u201d and \u201cchild pornography.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another common issue of focus were so-called drag queen story hours: family-oriented events featuring drag performers, a number of which were the site of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/nation\/2022\/08\/12\/drag-mainstream-attacks-crossroads\/\">protests and occasionally violent confrontations<\/a> in the spring and summer of 2022. The phrase \u201cstory hour\u201d was among the 15 most-used phrases in posts mentioning this topic on six of these seven sites. And the phrase \u201cPizza Hut\u201d \u2013 a reference to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/pizza-hut-slammed-suggesting-drag-performer-book-kids-reading-club-1712655\">viral controversy<\/a> over a children\u2019s reading club that included a book about a drag performer \u2013 was the single-most frequently mentioned phrase in these posts on Truth Social.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A third group of common phrases in these posts indicated concern over transgender issues and changing norms of gender identity. Roughly one-quarter of all such posts about LGBTQ issues by these prominent accounts (24%) included the word \u201ctrans.\u201d And on four of the seven sites, the top 15 terms included references to transgender athletes competing in women\u2019s sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These posts also frequently mentioned journalists, politicians and other figures who have prominently spoken out against changing gender norms, or against expanded rights and greater public acceptance for LGBTQ individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 data-is-section=\"true\" data-wp-context=\"{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;These-prominent-accounts-often-linked-to-other-social-media-platforms,-established-and-alternative-alike-\\u2013-but-rarely-to-traditional-media-outlets&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"{&quot;namespace&quot;:&quot;prc-block\\\/table-of-contents&quot;}\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"These-prominent-accounts-often-linked-to-other-social-media-platforms,-established-and-alternative-alike-\u2013-but-rarely-to-traditional-media-outlets\">These prominent accounts often linked to other social media platforms, established and alternative alike \u2013 but rarely to traditional media outlets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-310-wide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/journalism\/2022\/10\/06\/content-from-prominent-alternative-social-media-accounts-highlights-extreme-vaccine-skepticism-anxiety-over-lgbtq-issues\/pj_2022-10-06_alt-social_4-03\/\"><img data-dominant-color=\"ebe9e9\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #ebe9e9;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-03-1.png?resize=480,1211 480w, https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-03-1.png?resize=620,1564 620w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 480px, (max-width: 782px) 782px, 640px\" height=\"782\" width=\"310\" src=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-03-1.png?w=406\" alt=\"A chart showing that Nearly half of links from prominent alternative social media accounts pointed to other social media sites\" class=\"wp-image-181469 not-transparent\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the month of June, the prominent accounts examined in this analysis posted a total of 359,037 discrete links to 9,075 unique web domains. Around one-quarter of all posts produced by these accounts during the month (27%) included at least one link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In an effort to understand the types of online entities these prominent accounts directed their audiences toward, researchers from the Center collected and classified every domain that was shared at least 100 times during the month. A total of 345 domains met this condition, and they accounted for 84% of all links shared by these accounts during the study period. These domains were then categorized in a method similar to the one used in the Center\u2019s 2018 analysis of <a href=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/journalism\/2018\/01\/29\/sources-shared-on-twitter-a-case-study-on-immigration\/\">immigration-related tweets<\/a>, as well as its 2020 examination of <a href=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/journalism\/2020\/06\/24\/as-covid-19-emerged-in-u-s-facebook-posts-about-it-appeared-in-a-wide-range-of-public-pages-groups\/\">COVID-19 posts<\/a> in public Facebook groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This analysis finds that social media sites \u2013 both established and alternative \u2013 are central to the link-sharing habits of these popular accounts. Fully 45% of all links to popular domains shared by these accounts went to some type of social media site, including around a quarter (24%) that pointed to more established sites such as YouTube or Twitter. Another 15% went to alternative social media sites that were included in this study \u2013 while 6% went to other alternative social media sites like odysee.com that were not included in this report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond social media, one-in-five of these links went to digital-only news organizations, while another 8% went to blogs. All told, nearly three-quarters of all links to popular domains from these accounts (73%) went to these four categories (more established social media, alternative social media, digital-only news and blogs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By contrast, it was rare for these prominent accounts to link directly to legacy media sources. Just 4% of these links went to the online presences of print publications, and 1% went to TV station websites. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This abundance of links to the social web and digital-native news organizations \u2013 and paucity of links to legacy media sources \u2013 represents a stark divergence from the link-sharing habits in other online spaces the Center has examined. In the Center\u2019s study of COVID-19 posts on public Facebook groups, <a href=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/journalism\/2020\/06\/24\/news-organizations-were-most-prominent-source-in-covid-19-content-shared-in-public-facebook-spaces\/pj_2020-06-24_covid-on-facebook_2-01\/\">more than four-in-ten posts<\/a> containing links directed readers to either the website of a TV station (28%) or a print publication (15%). Meanwhile, just 9% of such posts contained links to other social media sites. And in the Center\u2019s study of immigration posts on Twitter, legacy news organizations such as print, TV and radio <a href=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/journalism\/2018\/01\/29\/sources-shared-on-twitter-a-case-study-on-immigration\/pj_2018-01-29_twitter-sharing_1-01\/\">accounted for 28% of linked sites<\/a> \u2013 double the share for digital-only news organizations (14%). Even acknowledging the differences in these studies \u2013 including the methods, time frame and topical orientation \u2013 the stark variation in these findings is striking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 data-is-section=\"true\" data-wp-context=\"{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;social-media-sites-and-digital-only-publishers-are-the-most-common-individual-domains-in-links-from-prominent-alternative-social-media-accounts&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"{&quot;namespace&quot;:&quot;prc-block\\\/table-of-contents&quot;}\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"social-media-sites-and-digital-only-publishers-are-the-most-common-individual-domains-in-links-from-prominent-alternative-social-media-accounts\">Social media sites and digital-only publishers are the most common individual domains in links from prominent alternative social media accounts<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-310-wide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/journalism\/2022\/10\/06\/content-from-prominent-alternative-social-media-accounts-highlights-extreme-vaccine-skepticism-anxiety-over-lgbtq-issues\/pj_2022-10-06_alt-social_4-04\/\"><img data-dominant-color=\"e9e6e7\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #e9e6e7;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-04-1.png?resize=480,1087 480w, https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-04-1.png?resize=620,1404 620w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 480px, (max-width: 782px) 782px, 640px\" height=\"702\" width=\"310\" src=\"https:\/\/beta.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/PJ_2022.10.06_alt-social_4-04-1.png?w=452\" alt=\"A chart showing that Most links from prominent alternative social accounts include other social media sites\" class=\"wp-image-181468 not-transparent\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to grouping these domains into categories, researchers also examined the most popular <em>individual domains<\/em> based on the share of all links that directed readers or viewers to those sites.
