I appreciate the vote of confidence unfortunately I know nothing about PSL and never felt the need to learn more about them so this is as good as it gets lol. One thing I'd look for is if they recognize the US to be a settler-colonial state, I don't think any of the major parties do. Oh, this comes up sometimes but some will weasel their way out of it implying or outright saying settler-colonialism is a thing of the past and that the US was settler-colonial but isn't anymore (implying the colonization has succeeded and the settlers have somehow transcended their settler status to become part of the global proletariat). That's probably the first thing I'd look for in a US org tbh. It's the old "the imperial hegemon thinks it knows communism better than the people that practice it", but this isn't unique to PSL or anything, just what I'd personally look for to determine an org.
Fair enough. Thanks regardless. Even that is a helpful reminder to keep an eye out for.
