Why is Lemmygrad hated in the wider space of Lemmy?

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?

I believe you've answered your own question.

Lemmy isn't Marxist-only. The majority of Lemmy users are what the more vocal Lemmygrad and Hexbear users deride as "libs." As a thought experiment, imagine that you are one of us for a moment and then browse Local on one of those.

Thought experiment; Don't be a lib.

Even better - don't be a tankie

As an anarchist, I've been called a tankie so many times basically for expressing views left of Ronald Reagan. Why should one not be a tankie?
