    The DSA is the only one that has even begun to approach the mass scale needed to make a workers party (which imo is going to take a very different form from past parties due to how the us political system works), 10x more people joined the DSA in the last couple months than are in PSL, doubly for PCUSA. 15 thousand people joined in our October recruitment drive. They are better funded, have more active chapters doing multiple forms of organizing, bringing together and creating many socialists without risking splitting due to enforcing a particular line and imo less susceptible to the marginalization that the PSL has been trapped in for 16 years now (and WWP, PSL's predecessor it split from was for 50 years before it). We have now surpassed the CPUSA's membership peak from 1944 (hundreds of thousands never joined it btw, it maxed out at 80k) and are on track to surpass the SPUSA 1912 peak by next year.
