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?

We are watching an actual genocide unfold in Gaza right now and it is impossible for Israel to hide it from the world. When will we finally get a single image from China depicting this so called Uyghur genocide? There's not one image of death camps, mass graves, or dead bodies. How on earth is that possible? Internet access is extremely widespread in China.

Genocide doesn't have too mean death.

Nobody gives a shit about the non-death genocides, because West has done most of that by assimilating other cultures and westernising everyone on this planet. West has committed both death and non-death genocides the most, with nobody else even in the ballpark.

Non-death genocides are talked about quite a bit now when it comes to Russia in Ukraine and Israel in the West Bank
