What success are you talking about?
Am I out of the loop on this, what?
They are often the group that organise protest for various left wing cause and typically a lot of non members who also align with them of whatever issue attuned making the protest larger, non members most often outnumber the PSL core
This is jusr one example of a protest organised by the party to oppose the US enabling the genocide In Gaza, and many non party members who also oppose genocide attended https://medillonthehill.medill.northwestern.edu/2024/05/photos-workers-join-students-in-protesting-for-a-free-palestine-at-the-socialist-may-day-march/ they really many I'd you want to find info on other actions ggeyve organised
If you read coverage about protests about left issues anti police brutality, anti racism, anti genocide etc sometimes you'll find that the initial march, sit in, action etc are organised by the Party of Socialism and Liberation
They are successful in that they are an actual Communist party practicing democratic centralism, members are usually far more ideologically disciplined that the more disparate groups that don't have a democratically decided party line to adhere to, or criteria for membership
They are also successful in that they can actual mobilise people to get on the street
And they worry the authorities so much they write scare quotes like:
