Just curious and getting a feel, but why?

I am not in a party myself, because I can’t see any active in my area that I like and those I tried getting in touch with never replied.

For now I’ve settled with joining the IWW and hope to organize my workplace at a later date when I am more settled in, but as of now I am a newbie to my industry and to my company.

Maybe once I learn organizing techniques and get a network of people I can trust in my area, I’ve considered organizing a new party locally, but as of now that is more of a interesting thought than something I can actually accomplish in my current situation with my current knowledge base and current network.

What about you? What challenges have held you up so far?

    CPGB(ML) are the most prominent in that regard, they’re generally socially reactionary (and also a family cult basically).

    Then there’s CPB who don’t get picked up on for it as much, but they also have a lot of social reactionaries. (someone told me once that their youth wing is decent but… eh, if the main party sucks that doesn’t really help).

      Right sorted, they can fuck off then.

      I know a friend joined the YCL but is growing tired of their inaction and lack of theory and discussion (their words not mine).

        YCL is tied to CPB right? Guess they suck too, oh well lol. But yeah, the only party I’ve heard vaguely good things about is ‘Red Fightback’, silly name aside, I don’t really know anything about them other than that they are apparently not terfs.

          I honestly couldn’t tell you but yeah from the sounds of things not great.

          Hmmm ill give them a look but yeah the name feels a bit memey.

          “Not terfs” well they’ve accomplished the bare minimum so that’s always promising.
