Everyone's always talking about PSL, SRA, DSA, RR, CPUSA, and I'm just over here like "I just wanna grill for god sake!"

There's a million little random leftist organizations with slightly different goals and ideologies, but which one should someone looking to, in the words of Father Matt, 'log the fuck off' go to? Which ones are crank warehouses? Which are honeypots? Which are full of libs?

Bitch and complain about your least favorite orgs and shill for your favorites here. Reply to others telling them that their org is full of libs and FBI agents. Etc.

EDIT: also anyone with a specific recommendation in the Quad Cities area in Iowa/Illinois definitely drop me a line

I'm not so sure that they are, but in the American left, historically they've been the cause of a lot of splits. Like, we make fun of Trots for splitting, but recently, since the 60s on, white Maoists seem to have been the real driver of splits.

Still, the only Maoists I've dealt with IRL were the local ones, so it's entirely plausible I'm painting with an overly broad brush. I tend to discount most online tendency talk as just keyboard commando stuff. If you're busy typing out screeds about how the People's Front of Judea screwed you over by reserving the library meeting rooms for two straight months, so that your group couldn't book them, ya probably ain't gonna be leading a revolution anytime soon.
