Literally every org has problematic leadership.

This demand for pure perfection is ridiculous amongst some comrades that are turned off organisations due to whatever problematic feature is in them.

“We are not utopians, we do not “dream” of dispensing at once with all administration, with all subordination. These anarchist dreams, based upon incomprehension of the tasks of the proletarian dictatorship, are totally alien to Marxism, and, as a matter of fact, serve only to postpone the socialist revolution until people are different. No, we want the socialist revolution with people as they are now, with people who cannot dispense with subordination, control, and "foremen and accountants".” ― Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, The State and Revolution

These deficiencies could be corrected if enough decent comrades joined and became active.

can you call yourself a communist if you're not active?

I honestly don't think so.

Organising is hard, thankless work and if you're not even doing the bare minimum of showing up for study sessions and doing at least some small piece of work I don't think these lazy comrades deserve to call themselves communist.
