Is there a more politically and ideologically diverse alternative for Lemmy?
I know the real answer is reddit but I really don't want to go back now that I've already grown used to life without it. I was hoping for Lemmy to be a viable substitute but it isn't. I can see how this place is wonderful for the certain type of person but that person is not me. My experience during the past 6+ months has been a net negative and I'm pretty much ready to move on. I just don't know where else to go.

Nothing in your post indicates an existential threat. Sure some places will become unhabitable but not the entire earth. I also don't understand why you need to include the passive agressive ad-hominems and belittling tone instead of just making your point. People like you is why I'm considering leaving this platform. You make the experience worse for everyone.
Because you're a willfully ignorant dolt, that's why the tone.
Good.
People like you make the world worse for everyone.
So you think AI is more of an existential threat to humanity than climate change? This informs me that you really think some Skynet type of shit is more likely to happen than extreme weather phenomena. Do you know what an ice-age is? Do you have any idea what it means when we don't have enough water to grow crops? You think Alexa will hunt you down because you programmed it poorly, but you can't understand why a category 4 hurricane is deadly af.
Please, the faster you leave, the better. Head to Wikipedia to get rid of some of that ignorance. Here's a few bit of material to get you started.

Perhaps you're more of a... ehm "visual learner". Here: Here's a handy flowchart. and here's some examples in a video form Europe’s climate in 2050
There's a reason the deserts of our world aren't populated, and I'm sure you can figure out what that reason is.
