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?

The Nazis did multiple genocides by almost any definition, though obviously they could never aspire to the body count of America or Britain.

I figured since the manifold genocides all happened around the same time as part of the same policy, it'd all be lumped into one; that's my b-- but you are still correct in that the body count is absolutely dwarfed by what the American Empire's gotten up to.
