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?

Its a country founded on genocide that deported as many communists as they could in the 50s then killed and arrested the rest that remained.

Lets not forget the active genocides they carried out in vietnam or the middle east either, or the concentration camp they have open on cuba.

Is that Cuban concentration camp still being used? Where is your proof?

Guantánamo Bay

Since 2002, the base has included the detainment camp for individuals deemed of risk to United States national security. In 2009, the U.S. President, Barack Obama, gave orders for the detention camp to close by January 22, 2010. As of 2021, it remains open due to a congressional refusal of funds for its closure.
