The reason is simple. Misinformation sticks with conservatives more than liberals. With liberals, someone posts evidence that the story isn’t true and the whole thing fizzles out. If someone tries posting counter evidence in a conservative forum, they get banned.
There’s no money in trying to push misinformation to liberals.

Is there some way to just not see the remnants of communities from defederated instances?
No, this is a prediction of what they will be doing.
And any comment attempting to call out the bots for what they are will be automatically deleted by monitor AI bots and the user’s account suspended.
They’ll be watching private messages, too.
I don’t think those are supported by most browsers.> Sanskrit
EDIT: Umm… actually with Sanskrit, I stand corrected
The numbers may return to normal but the feel won’t.
And wait until the 3PAs finally shut down.

Google translate is giving me “If kept silence stayed philosopher.”
Maybe when reddit goes public, we should all start buying stock until we can control 51% of it
14 years, here. From the Digg exodus.
