Im going to guess your politics are probably right of center. My experience is very different. I'm not very political and it used to be that I could mostly avoid politics. Now my feed seems to mostly full of right-wing trolls and relentlessly so even though I hardly engage. If I was a conspiracy nut I would go as far as saying Elon is trying to force a 'diversity of political opinion' or at least his version of it on my feed.

My politics are pretty moderate, neither left nor right for the most part. I would be annoyed if Twitter turned into a right-wing echo chamber but I like that it is now at least not dominated by the censorious side of the left. And I am probably a bit more into reading about politics on Twitter than you are, by the sound of it, and I am pretty used to seeing hardcore left-wingers and right-wingers yell at each other, so it does not bother me much. Another difference is that I do not use the feed, I pretty much only use Twitter when I follow links from other sites and then maybe jump around a bit browsing related threads. So if the feed is full of spam, it does not bother me.
