There's certainly some truth to what you're saying, I'm sure if we both made a list of posters we viewed as unnecessarily antagonistic there would be a ton of overlap.
I would just argue the problem is a-holes, not their political views. If people are truly leaving just because their political views aren't reciprocated and they seek an echo chamber, I say good riddance. Calling it a leftist problem is laughable
