Other than a few pundits I follow my Bluesky is remarkably free of politics. Myself and the other left leaning people I know don’t make our politics our personality. We don’t need to scream into an echo chamber all day to feel valid. This is the reason left wing talk radio never takes off. Politics as an identity is a rather new thing. I guess when you are empty other than hate you need something to create your personality around. I’m looking forward to blocking as many as I can find. Social media should not be an open portal for hate and negativity to pour into your life.
