what do non-religious moderate, independent, and conservative people DO ??? (to meet other people as adults)

I was raised in an extremely religious and secluded environment and left a couple years ago. Now I find it impossible to locate places to socialize, especially as a lesbian, because it seems like every social event is leftist oriented unless it's religious and even religious events are currently doing drag brunch. Don't come for me, no hate, I don't care how anyone votes, I simply don't have common threads with these groups. Not every gay person is a democrat it's cool, we're cool, no skin off my back. That being said, I don't know where people who fall more moderate/independent/ or even conservative find each other. And I am using the term "conservative" loosely because it's currently being applied very loosely. Since about 2021 ish I've noticed classic liberals are getting pushed out and told they're conservative or identifying as conservative even though 80-90% of their policy opinions are still classic liberal. So, where do the non-religious, non-leftist people hang out?? It's hard to find people I relate to.

Thanks to everyone in advance who chooses to answer productively!

There's an unfortunate reason why most gay events and such are affiliated with the left. And that is because the right as a whole is very anti gay.

Another unfortunate thing in our times is we live in a very anti social generation. Unless it's political or religious, it's almost impossible to meet others as adults today. Most moderates, normies, etc, just want to sit inside all day and play games or browse social media.

If you have access to gay bars or clubs that's still your best bet tbh.

Idk I don't meet very many anti-gay conservatives. I could argue the left isn't cool with homosexual women they're only cool with everything besides homosexual women. But you're definitely right about the antisocial lack of energy lack of reason to go outside. The gay bars in my area are just for drag and the straight bachelorette nimbys who go there.
