I just emailed the PSL to figure out what it will take to set up a chapter where I am. I'm not a paying member yet but will join officially as soon as I'm making money.
Gonna be hard as hell setting up in the Texas Panhandle, deep in Christo-fascist Trump land but fuck it. I'm not gonna stand by idly why my bothers and sisters suffer.
Honestly it would probably be more strategic to start something that directly helps the local people and opens them up to inoculation than try and start a PSL chapter
When I sent the application request thing, I stated that I wanted to discuss the prospects of doing this exactly for reasons like what you mention. I will probably already bring it up to the others who help with FNB because I think they are all left-leaning libs at worst, that mean well. I think they are more open to that discussion.
tbh I doubt they would even get back to you for that, PSL is notoriously bad at getting back to people in general while also only helping people to promote PSL and Peace & Freedom's candidates or show up to ANSWER stuff. maybe they will be changing these things with the election over, trying to use the momentum to build their party up.
I think non political people who have the standard 8th grade civ level of understanding installed and otherwise are just obviously people who care about life and other living things are really the best because it is easy to walk them to "the system doesn't work," they typically understand that already and just don't have the words to describe it. getting a group of people in similar shitty circumstances together and forming a plan on how to tackle those issues through building an organization together can be as easy as a bbq in the lawn at your local slumlord's apartment building. just need to analyze your local conditions and find the contradictions that have the most kinetic energy so to speak
They would be missing a great opportunity to build their party if they don't personally act on this. I've been out of activism IRL for a few years but I know a lot of people are really pissed off right now and the PSL did a decent job getting their name out to at least leftist spaces.
DM me, we're actively running a drive to make sure we capitalize this momentum. We can exchange matrix info and I'll try to get you in contact with someone and make sure your application is seen.

Organize. Agitate. Fight Back!

Sent!
Godspeed
They never got back to me last time so this time I told them I'm pissed lol.
I have a handful of people I can reach out to but I'm already worried about getting them to read theory.
Good luck, comrade. The hardest struggles are sometimes the most important.
