Uneven wear on left rear (compared to right)

Have a left rear tire that may be wearing completely differently than the other rear. The reason I say "may" is because I didn't put them on. I thought they were all as new as what you see in the better tread picture when I bought the car. But, the right rear and fronts could have all been new with the left rear left undone. Doubtful. If they started out the same when I got the car, then it means something pretty egregious is going on as I haven't put 2K on it. Could that much damage be done in that few miles (2K)? I've spun them a couple times on start, but definitely the exception. It's even wear across the tire (not like the inside wear in camber situations). Any thoughts?

Thank you for any suggestions.

Do the 2 rears have the same date code? What are the last 4 numbers of the DOT code? These numbers are only on 1 side of the tire.

Could maybe have a Toe problem somewhere? Maybe try to take it to one of those tire places that advertise a free alignment check.
Or a reputable alignment place might charge anywhere from $20 to $40 to check it.
Depends on who you want to trust more I guess
