Socialist memes are cool, but how can I meet and organise with other socialists who want to really bring about change? Are there online groups I can interact with? Any on-going initiatives that need dev labor? Looking for a point in the right direction

I wish PSL would contact me a bit more tbh. I signed up for membership a few months ago and the only correspondence I’ve received was a text message asking for my address to send me materials which haven’t come in yet. Maybe I’ll reach back out to them since, up until this thread, I assumed it was normal to move a bit slow.

Definitely reach back out. I think everyone in the party acknowledges this issue in our recruiting - we get more people applying than we can handle, and it inevitably leads to people slipping through the cracks. We've expanded a lot of our recruitment systems and things have gotten much better, but it's still got a ways to go.

It helps for the recruit to be proactive. The best thing you can do is show up to an event and talk to people in person.
