The Panthers did free before school breakfast and after school babysitting and all sorts of actual community building like that. The PSL does protests and craft events and that's it. I guess providing consistent services is an order of magnitude more difficult than organizing marches but it just doesn't seem like the marches are getting us anywhere.

they don't live in the same neighborhood very long.

Yeah this is a big thing, the American working class is far more transient now, people change jobs and houses far more frequently. The Bolsheviks were walking into villages that were 100s of years old, my neighbors seem to change every six months.
