I've been trying to find a good Marxist instance, but Lemmygrad and Hexbear are widely hated. Why is that? Are there any good leftist instances?

Because liberals and other right wingers hate when they find out they're not actually "as left as you can get" and coming here and having that black mirror reflection is always a shock
