They seem to be the only leftist org in my area that actually does much of anything, but they’ve come under fire for weird vague allegations, so idk.

No, that's definitely not the case. We have a well developed system for building at-large members with no nearby branch. New branches get established through this process all the time.
Ah, that's very good news! I made that assumption since you said they don't really do on-paper members. I'd for sure be able to attend meetings, study groups, do digital tasks, etc if opportunities like that were available remotely. I'll probably fill out the interest form later this week and just see what happens. Though I have unfortunately heard of people being ghosted for months through that process.
We had more growth than we were prepared to manage and it was especially bad at the height of 2020 and the months following Al-Aqsa Flood. My understanding is it's much smoother atm, but yeah, it's a thing that happens. If you don't get a prompt response, consider other channels - the Instagram page for a branch in your state, even if it's not close, could be helpful.
