My guess is they generally don't get involved with stupid infighting although I admit that's just a guess based on almost nothing
The most severe infighting I've seen in PSL are cases involving harassment. It's a symptom of leftists in the US being overrepresented with younger, disaffected people who might not have the best social skills. So in direct terms, there are a lot of creeps who get involved in leftist stuff to get closer to women.
I don't remember which branches did this, but I remember accusations that some leadership members were sweeping away serious allegations of sexual harassment. I think a branch in Pennsylvania had a problem with a chaser? It's been years since I've thought or heard about this, sorry
This is probably true because they are a strict demcent, cadre based organization. They want quality over quantity of membership
