Why is Lemmygrad hated in the wider space of Lemmy? (lemm.ee)

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?

*depending on what instance you're on

They are defederated from a lot of instances, from their own side or the other's (my instance is defederated from LG and HB defederated itself from my instance)

A correction: Lemmygrad and Hexbear are two different instances, and it's an oversimplification to lump them in together. Lemmygrad does not defederate from any real instance, we have possibly one of the smallest block lists of any bigger instances.
