What is the PSL's plan for revolution? (hexbear.net)

I've been getting involved with PSL and decided to apply to join. One thing I think is really important that I don't know how to ask them without sounding like a straight up fed is: "what is the plan to turn class consciousness into revolution?" like, I'm willing to do all these typical organizational efforts but only if there's actually a plan towards revolution and not just some nebulous hope that enough class consciousness will just make a revolution happen. If anyone from PSL can illuminate this for me I would really appreciate it. Obvi, don't like put yourself or the org in danger by answering, so if you need to be vague that's alright.

I don't even know if I'm allowed to ask this here tbh. If not, mods feel free to remove this post

FRSO basically doesn't exist in comparison to size of PSL.

They also hold a strong western chauvinist line about colonialism and the national sovereignty of Indigenous people in North America.

which is especially wild given their center of operations is in Minneapolis, one of the most native urban areas in the country

Can you substantiate this?

Holy crap, this is worse than I thought. They literally ignore years and years of indigenous history.

It reads like a high schooler trying to excuse settler colonialism in the United States as "Ancient history"

Thank you for highlighting this. I did not know about this with the FRSO.

Wow, I did not know that. I will definitely keep that in mind as I'm looking at membership for these orgs in the future.

Yes if there's literally no other options I would look into starting something local or starting a chapter of something like PSL
