Try other instances. No one forbids you from creating new accounts and explore other instances. And no one prohibits you from leaving completely lemmy.ml either.
No-no, thanks. Technical instances are fine, but I don't want to be in instances with high levels of political opinions. ML, Hexbear and Lemmygrad contain too much pro-communist, pro-Russian, pro-USSR idealogies in both comunities and users. Especially, Lemmygrad. Maybe lemmy.world is not saint, but, at least, I don't see so much annoying posts and comments there, which promote political and social ideologies. For me the best approach is to simply use a neutral instance and block unwanted communities on other instances.
Lemmy.world promotes liberalism and liberal ideologies. It sounds like your issue isn't with politics in the abstract, but instead with left wing politics in particular.
