I spent a few hours on there looking for actual leftists to follow, and cannot find shit in their starter packs or lists or w/e. it really is just stuffed with turbo libs

You’re not wrong. We were/are probably just as bad from outside.
People posting totally unprompted “we call it skeets if you don’t like it you can leave” and “we block here” and similar culture enforcement stuff is just grating. They’re trying to establish a distinct culture from twitter but at least what I’m seeing it already is just twitter is nearly every sense so it comes off as very forced.
Mastodon was a lot like this early on as well. I remember a lot of self-righteousness around not being on the “birdsite” and people insisting that posts be called “toots”. Eventually it calmed down, I think because other people started pointing out how obnoxious it was lol. Similarly, mastodon ended up having a lot of the same problems as twitter anyways.
