I guess. I'm still kind of a babby Marxist myself, and having somewhere that didn't just throw books at you and say "read theory nerd" but actually explained it, held reading groups, and would interpret theory into modern language and situations is great. I'm dealing with a Discord server full of people right now who are literally all theory and no real world experience, and it's incredibly frustrating.
No I completely understand that. Right now I'm lucky enough to have a radical COVID bubble and we've been meeting weekly to go through lectures, texts, etc. so I really do appreciate the value in having IRL comrades with whom you can study. In my city Fightback's presence is mainly on campus and most of us are workers and not students.

They're not a perfect group but I'll take it.
