I’m a conservative. I don’t mind the liberal stuff here. It’s good to learn the other side, but I don’t want a liberal echo chamber. I’d like to be more politically balanced in the fediverse. Is there any way I can do that?

This is so important. In essence, politics should be about our view, and critically searching for those who best represent it (or the most important part of it at the current moment), not about a ‘team we root for’ and get our views from. I think too many people forget that.
As a non American looking in, politics is basically treated like a sports team in America. People pick a side and then that’s it - unquestioned support, forever, while attacking supporters of the other “team”. All they care about is “winning”. They don’t care if their own “team” is making their life worse, as long as they “win”.
