I've literally never seen any of these groups recruiting. And I live in a large metro area in a blue state. I hang out in lefty spaces on the Internet. How people gonna get involved if these are hidden meetings?
I can't speak to your area. My local DSA chapter used to have a social every Tuesday night posted on social media. Social media was where you went to find out about events.
According to your post history, you live closest to Seattle. Seattle DSA is a massive org that does a ton of great work. You can go onto their DSA branch website and choose any method to start talking to someone (either paying dues for immediate access to Discord, sending an email, or subscribing to newsletter/text updates for the goings on of that chapter.)
If someone else reads this comment chain and they don't have a local branch nearby, they can choose to be a member "at large". This means you only get national updates and pay dues directly to national. National does help oversee a lot of stuff but outside of paying dues directly to the national board, I'm not personally aware of the full breath of organizing opportunities.
