Yeah our local anarchists have been complaining about us “hijacking” activist movements (e.g. for Palestine), but what it ultimately comes down to is that we show up. A lot. It turns out that going out there and getting shit done week after week, month after month is a shockingly effective recruiting tactic.
Our local PSL branch seems mega chill and simply do not have beefs with seemingly anyone.
They seem super close to the Brown Berets around here, probably because every leftist org here is highly integrated within the Chicano movement. The Chicanos have been the biggest game in town for decades now, so a lot of progressive style politics ends up under that umbrella in these parts I guess.

This gives me much hope. I plan to join soonish, once I’m secure in a job.
Hell yeah
