Even places like lemmy or mastodon aren't safe anymore. Everything that is public can be, and is, data mined by some corporation. There will be bot accounts or paid people pushing their agenda. And several other things.

It's not a technical problem. We can have places that are better than the average, but the corporations will still put their tentacles in.
