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?

There's a difference between challenging other people's opinions and calling them fascists or Nazis just because they're not at the extreme left.

Even worse, in this very thread I've been called a fascist for the sole reason that my instance is sh.itjust.works, one of the bigger instances and one where your political opinion isn't a criteria to subscribe (especially not when I subscribed, they didn't even ask for an email!)

Unironically believe in far right anticommunism conspiracy

Wonder why they called fascist.

How about not being a fascist?

It's funny how fascists always leave out the part that actually gets them called a fascist, isn't it?

Yea. Literally wolves in sheep's clothing. I see this tactic all the time.
