You're citing examples from a fairly homogenous set of inputs, one that was largely fed by Twitter refugees. The nature of the Fediverse is that it's as disparate as the web itself; you're starting with a fundamentally incorrect premise by referring to "Mastodon" at all. If you're trying to say "Mastodon" is ideologically any one way or the other, you're hosed from the start. It sounds like our political values probably diverge pretty seriously so I won't mourn you not joining the Fediverse, but treating it like a monolith is a common misconception. If you truly care about people challenging their own beliefs, start there.

Instances don't block you from going to a different instance.
