wish i had literally any org near me, closest org afaik is over 2 hours away from me, i tried to get involved in setting up a regional DSA chapter when i was younger but the main organizers fell apart after only a few months and since it was so early in the process + none of the other people involved were even that close to me (within 30 min) i didnt feel like i could take up the torch
Having to set up a local chapter is pretty paralyzing and a lot of ground work. Especially if you're in an area lacking in pre established leftists.
Not to be a stereotype of but if the cadre aren't near you, are there any odds of creating cadre? You know how much we love book clubs around here.
im not even sure how to do that at this point. live in a very reactionary area, all my friends no longer live here (i only live here to help take care of my dad), and im honestly extremely scared of revealing im a communist to the wrong person that could hurt me and my family. like out of all my 10 closest neighbors half have trump flags
