What davel said, but Alain Badiou might come close. Bertrand Russell too, although he was more an anti-imperialist than a Marxist.

This is the right take. Moreover, the capitalist West lacks the means of production to automate in the first place. So the real question is, what will AES states do as they continue to automate?

Honestly any local org would be a good place to start. Even better if they have a social event where you can meet folks first. And it’s totally fine if you don’t want to continue with an org for any reason. Just find another that’s a better fit.

But if you’re looking for left or socialist orgs specifically, folks have already mentioned a bunch of good options: FRSO, PSL, IWW, etc. I know the IWW has regular organizer trainings, and I found that really helpful for getting exposed to and practice with organizing techniques.
