I tried to talk to some SA people, all they wanted to do was sell a newspaper, even as I was asking about their platform and what joining might look like. Once I bought the paper they were a little bit friendlier but that was all I needed to experience to not want to be involved.

This was basically my experience with a group that hangs out in my city, part of the IMT, "Socialist Revolution". They talk to people that walk by and say we need to make a communist political party and win elections. They have stickers for sale and pins, but not even a pamphlet or flyer for free which turned me off. I get needing to raise funds but they were clearly well outfitted with a massive high res banner, you'd think they'd want to get the word out better.
