Adding onto ComradeSalad’s points, they’re 100% a last resort if you can’t find some actual communists to shoot with. I was in a chapter with about 8 people 5 years or so ago and I was the only self-identified Marxist. Social democrats, anarchists, left-liberals. “Left unity” out the ass (unless you’re an ML, good luck).
They’ve got a sex pest and ideological chaos problem. The SRA subreddit is evidence enough of their nonsense.

The shit?! What are they doing in a SOCIALIST GUN CLUB?! Why even call it a Socialist Rifle Association at that point?! I thought there already was a Liberal Gun Club, why don’t they go there instead?
Sorry, I’ve never been to a SRA before (doesn’t exist here), so I’m shocked to see SRA members not being S.
By theory they mean the likes of Zizek and Chomsky, I’m sure. Unfortunately there are a lot of other popular, Western ‘Marxist’ theorists, too, who don’t support AES. They can be a good route in, but unless there’s some encouragement to read ML works, it’s a dead end branch of theory. For some reason, those newer theorists get rather a lot of distribution.

EDIT: Also what’s with this “sex pest” problem?
All those people think they are the “real” socialists
No one vetted them before letting them in? Wow…
